Mallory Glenn has already witnessed the power of being part of the Tour de Scottsdale as one of its nonprofits.
Visibility.
“As a nonprofit partner of this event, we have already seen a swell of new donors and donations come in,” said Glenn, Development Associate for The Hope Foundation for Cancer Research. “We truly appreciate your and the Tour de Scottsdale team's assistance and are grateful to be involved in this event!”
They’ll be there on April 13 for the 20th HonorHealth Tour de Scottsdale. We will be glad to see them as they do great work. They will also have a team of cyclists who will raise money and awareness for The Hope Foundation.
They are Team Hope!
Hope's Tour de Scottsdale team is led by Dr. Parminder Singh, a SWOG member, physician-investigator at the Mayo Clinic in Arizona. Singh will participate in the 62-mile event as a nonprofit rider for The Hope Foundation. Additional Mayo Clinic staff and friends encompass Hope's team of NPO riders, "Team Hope." So far, they’ve raised nearly $7,000 in preparation for the big ride.
“Let’s ride to fight cancer!” Singh said.
