K9J 6Z6 Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to request your assistance with an exciting fundraiser in the Peterborough area. For the past seven years, police officers from the Peterborough- Lakefield Police Service, the Ontario Provincial Police and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police have joined the Canadian Cancer Society to organize Pedal for Hope. Officers complete a one thousand kilometre bicycling tour of Peterborough County, City of Kawartha Lakes, Haliburton Highlands and Northumberland County over a period of three weeks. The aim of the campaign is to raise awareness and understanding for local children battling cancer, as well as funds to assist in finding a cure and treatments through pediatric cancer research. I am requesting that the Township of Otonabee-South Monaghan consider donating funds that would be used to purchase iPods or other prizes for top fundraisers in local schools. The name of the Township would be engraved on each iPod and it would be displayed in each school prior to being presented at a school assembly. This creates an opportunity to promote our generous donors, and their name would be announced in front of the entire school when the prize is presented. This tour runs in conjunction with Cops for Cancer, which has raised over two and a half million dollars in the Peterborough area alone. This year’s Pedal for Hope tour promises to be an even bigger success than the past seven. Officers will again pedal 1000km, making stops along the route at approximately 50 participating schools. Assemblies will be held that feature presentations to the children, head shaving (teachers and officers), education and fun events. The tour itself begins April 16th, 2012. The fundraising period begins in early March and runs until Pedal for Hope reaches their school. Pedal for Hope’s first seven years were an even greater success than anticipated, with more than $1.3 million being raised. Even more encouraging than the financial success is the rapport that has been built between the officers and the students in the schools. The enthusiasm shown by the kids is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Kids have organized fundraising events, shaved their heads and collected sponsors, all in support of the cause. Many have raised very impressive amounts of money. The children have learned that they are able to band together and make a significant difference in the lives of others. Dave McNab, OPP - Pedal for Hope Page 3 of 363 ... Agenda Item # 5b) Pedal for Hope has received tremendous media attention, which has assisted with promoting the tour and educating the public about the need for pediatric cancer research. This has also created a fantastic opportunity to promote organizations that have provided us with the sponsorship that keeps our tour alive. Pedal for Hope has been able to display company logos on tour vehicles and uniforms as well as on their website. (www.pedalforhope.com) Pedal for Hope is catching on in other areas with plans being made to involve other police agencies throughout Ontario. As in the previous seven years, the funds raised this year will be used for pediatric cancer research. There is still much help needed to make Pedal for Hope the success that it can be. I am hoping for an opportunity to speak to you about Pedal for Hope and any support that you would consider giving us. I would welcome a call at 705-742-0401 (work), 705-931-2123 (cell) or 705-932-2122 (home) at your earliest convenience to discuss this matter further. Sincerely, Dave McNab Prov.
