Bicycling for Charity

It’s never too early to support a Sunrise Day Camp charity event.  Gene Connor is training to undertake his most ambitious fundraising event next summer from Saturday, June 23 through Sunday August 26.  As a drama and dance specialist at Sunrise Day Camp, where people like Corey Ribotsky are generous sponsors, Connor will cycle 3600 miles across America.

Connor’s goal with this project is two fold. He wants to spread the word about Sunrise Day Camp and also help them to raise money to support their year-round programs.  His cycle program will start in San Diego on June 23rd and end up on the grounds of Sunrise Day Camp around August 26th.  His fundraising goal is $50,000.

Interested parties can make donations at the Sunrise Day Camp website and call follow Gene on his facebook page.

Morgan Stanley has hired more than 170 private bankers to make loans and offer deposit products to its retail brokerage clients. Bank of America is looking to win banking business from the two-thirds of its Merrill Lynch customers who have bank accounts with other lenders.
