Inspired by…Bob & his Bike!

Bob & Barbara Frick

Imagine you were 71 years old, retired and smack dab in the middle of your golden years - relaxed and content.  You’ve had a great life and life is good.

Bob Frick is no ordinary 71-year old.  True, he is retired…but he is not relaxed.  After learning of the great work of Habitat for Humanity, their mission of building affordable homes, and giving people in need a ‘leg up’, Bob decided to put his own legs to work.

Bob picked up his bike and started riding.  Not just around the block.  Not just around the track.  No, he is riding his bike across the entire country!  That’s right — Bob started in Lafayette, California on September 3rd and will finish up sometime in late November/early December in Florida intent on raising at least $71,000 along the way for the East Bay (Oakland, CA) Habitat for Humanity.  He is riding to raise money, but also stopping to help build homes across the country, attend fund-raisers, and creating awareness for affordable housing everywhere he goes.

I encourage you to donate directly to Bob’s cause by clicking here: Cycle of Hope.  This is Bob’s website and includes his blog with an account of his travels as well as the link to donate.   And Humanitas is thrilled to help Bob as well.  If you’d like to his cause simply by sipping some wonderful wines, click here: Humanitas Cycle of Hope Gift Pack to purchase a 6-pack of wines.  We’ll donate 20% of your purchase to the Habitat Cycle of Hope as well.  It is a great deal – you get to drink wine and help Bob build houses.  Drinking charitably is what Humanitas is all about.  Cheers to Bob!
