We’ve smashed the $15k goal!
Thursday 15th May 2025With just a few days left until the ride, we’ve absolutely smashed the $15,000 goal—thank you all so much! Your donations are going directly to a cause that matters: improving men’s health through the Movember Foundation.
But we’re not done yet.
I’ve raised my personal goal to exactly $19,612. Why that number? Because that’s exactly what’s needed to help the Metro Detroit DGR chapter reach its overall fundraising goal.
Here’s where we stand:
- Metro Detroit’s goal: $31,643
- Raised so far: $28,577
- Left to go: $3,066
- My total raised: $16,546
- That means YOU—my friends, family, and supporters—have already contributed more than half of Metro Detroit’s total!
Let’s finish strong and close that gap. If you haven’t donated yet, now’s the time. Even $5—the cost of a cup of coffee—helps push us over the top.
All donations are tax-deductible and go directly to the Movember Foundation’s work in prostate cancer, mental health, and suicide prevention.
I have hit my goal!
Wednesday 14th May 2025Thank You — And Let’s Keep Pushing for Men’s Health
Saturday 3rd May 2025Thank you to everyone who’s supported my Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride fundraiser so far — whether you’ve donated, shared, or just reached out with encouragement. It means more than you know.
Last year was my first time riding in the DGR, and it changed everything. I heard powerful stories from other riders about prostate cancer, mental health, and loss. It opened my eyes to how many of us carry these struggles quietly.
This year, I’m back — donating more, doing more, and riding for the people I care about.
My dad is a prostate cancer survivor. I’ve faced my own battles with depression. I’ve seen how these issues affect the men around us — and how often they go unspoken or untreated.
That’s why I’m proud to support Movember through the DGR. Men are still dying too young. We can change that — and we should.
I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride
Wednesday 9th Apr 2025 On Sunday the 18th of May 2025, I'm riding in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before I press my tweed and polish my boots, I'm asking you to join me in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.
