Wheels: Prices go up Monday, Fundraise and Train!
Hi Amy,
Wheels of Justice, not including our partner teams, have raised $127,441 toward our goal of $650,000! Let’s keep that fundraising going! Remember to check out our sponsors at the bottom of this newsletter.
Fundraising ideas:
I particularly like the ‘how to storytell’ page: Courage Classic Storytelling 101 - Children’s Hospital Colorado Foundation
Use all your social media platforms and email to request donations.
If you need information on what to include in your fundraising requests, check out information in Children’s CCBD Impact Report: Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders Impact Report - Children’s Hospital Colorado Foundation
Wheels of Justice 2026 is about celebrating our survivors! We are collecting survivor stories and will include them in future newsletters. Please send your stories to me, Amy Goodner, by replying to this email!
Also, if you have a big fundraiser coming up, let Amy know and she’ll advertise in an upcoming newsletter.
Did you know that CCBD at Children’s Colorado ranks #4 in the nation and #1 in the Colorado region? That is fantastic news to share. It’s because of you and your donors that they are able to make some of the investments they share in the report!
This year our focus is on Survivors. The CCBS Impact Reort report has a section on the HOPE program. The Children’s Colorado HOPE Cancer Survivorship Program is the first and one of the longest-running survivorship programs in the nation. In the HOPE Program’s 30-year history, more than 2000 patients have been treated.

If you have other good training rides you’d like to share, please let us know! I’ve done a couple new rides this month. 1) I rode the Katy Trail in Missouri - 240 miles of pure joy with minimal elevation gains! and 2) I rode 16.5 miles up the west side of Trail Ridge Road yesterday — beautiful and a killer ride! No more riding it now as it opened up today. :)
