Pedaling to Feed Kids

IMG_1976

On August 1, 2014, Michael McAllister, CEO and Founder of The CE Shop and CE Shop Foundation and Virgil Seibold, Vice President of Human Resources for The CE Shop began their journey to pedal 975 miles from Fargo, ND to Denver, CO raising money for children’s backpack programs across the nation, including Food Bank of the Rockies’ Totes of Hope™ – Children. Their goal was to raise enough to provide 2,000 backpacks to kids and their families.

Today, they rolled into Food Bank of the Rockies’ parking lot, tired but smiling from ear to ear. Greeted by family, friends and team members from The CE Shop and FBR, these generous men with really big hearts took a few minutes to share what they observed on their adventure. “There are more kind, caring, and generous people in this great land than anything else, and one by one, or together we can make a difference!” they told the welcoming crowd.

We couldn’t agree more! Thank you Michael and Virgil, for not only being kind, caring and generous, but also for taking action and embarking on this journey. Your efforts will truly make a difference in the lives of hungry children and their families.
