Fundraising Events Coming Up

I have two fundraisers coming up before I leave on May 10th for Portugal! I'll be making my way north from there to our starting point in Santiago de Compostela. 

The first fundraiser is an event at my parents house for anyone interested in learning more about my ride. We'll have some snacks and drinks and I can tell you all about The Ability Experience, what they do, my experiences volunteering with them and riding bikes long distances to raise awareness for people with disabilities and the community this organization supports.

The second one I need your creativity for my haircut fundraiser for The Ability Experience. As of March 21st, 2017, the tips of my curls turned 1 year old. They've come a long way since they last saw the cold metal blades of a pair of scissors, this is the longest they've ever been but they aren't going much further. 

Here is the plan.

1-March, call for designs! I want you to come up with an idea on how you want to cut/style my hair. Anything is fair game as long as it's not shorter than 1/2" anywhere. You can even use temporary color, gel or bows, I'll take any and all ideas. Just email or comment with your idea, pictures preferred but descriptions will do too. Email: Margolis.Samuel@gmail.com

2-On March 31st I'll pick the best ideas from those submitted and voting begins.

3-Voting will be by donation. You can leave a comment for online donations with the your favorite design.

4-On April 24th the design with the most donations will win. For that Friday-Sunday I'll flaunt the winning hairdo at bars, breweries, shows, or wherever else our adventure takes us. Join in the fun and laughs if you are around Seattle!

Here are some before pictures.
