Guys:

I am thinking about hosting a mustang ride for charity (childhood cancer). By now, you have probably figured out that childhood cancer is a big part of my life, well it is. In fact, my wife and I run a non-profit org. called Home of Their Own, Inc.

I thought that it might be fun and a good fund raiser and a way to raise awareness to do a mustang ride/cruise. We could call it "Pony Ride for Kids".

What I would suggest is having as many stangs as possible from all years meet at the Hershey Medical Center (Children's Hospital) in the parking lot. Have a short show and then go on a one hour or so cruise throughout the Hershey area. Then, return to the hospital. We could also start at the antique car museum in Hershey and end at the Hospital.

Money could be raised by drivers collecting fees from sponsors that they solicit on their own. Also, drivers could bring items that the kids might need such as toys, baby formula or whatever. Additionally, we could offer rides in advance to some of the cancer kids at the hospital who are well enough to take a cruise and even their family members.

I could get magnetic signs donated that could be placed on the cars so everyone would know what the cruise is all about. Then, when back at the hospital, we could have a little cook out or whatever to close the day.

Thoughts anyone? I am thinking of course, next year for something like this.

 

Sounds like a great plan, if only I was closer Id come help out. I hope it goes well for you if you get the plan to work. Thats a great thing you and your wife are doing.

 

I'm with madmatt. Too bad I'm not closer because that is a great thing you are doing! I hope it is a success!
