Patrick Lannon's 2022 Ride For Life Chicago
The year 2022......is better(ISH) than 2021 and 2020. Kinda, sorta.
And, we're back to a two day ride to Michigan....so that's good. And, yes we will be following CDC guidelines to keep everyone safe and healthy
The reason we continue to ride is that one thing we are sure of is that TPAN still needs our support to continue to do the life saving work for their clients that they have been doing for 35 years.
I'm participating in this event for the 13th year to raise vital funds to support HIV services in the community. In addition, through my participation, and with your support we will continue to raise awareness around HIV in an effort to reduce the debilitating effects of shame and stigma associated with HIV/AIDS.
The months of training and preparing for this Ride is nothing compared to what people living with HIV go through on a daily basis. Thank you for supporting my efforts.
EMPOWERING LIVES AFFECTED BY HIV
TPAN’s Ride for Life Chicago is the unique cycling and fundraising event to support the lifesaving work of TPAN and its community partners. For more than 15 years, the Ride has been a critical engine of support for our delivery of healthcare and services to people living with HIV/AIDS and related health conditions. In that time, the Ride has helped TPAN deliver care to tens of thousands of individuals and had a profound impact.
The Ride brings together thousands of donors and hundreds of volunteers, cyclists, and advocates to ensure that nearly 2,000 people per year have access to TPAN's care and services at no cost. Through participants' commitment to cycle 100-200 miles over 2 days, our riders and volunteers share their stories of triumph over HIV, their commitment to end HIV/AIDS, and TPAN’s success in providing expert, compassionate health services to individuals and families across Chicago.
