Hi, my name is Donna Urbanski from New Smyrna Beach, FL. Thank you for your support in 2020. Since the last campaign during Covid, we have identified additional needs in our communities.

The service industry still has not rebounded since the Covid epidemic. In our years of travel and eating out, both business and personal, this class of hard workers have always supported us with a warm smile, words of kindness, and endless stories. They continue to struggle.

During Covid, many families took in pets, but now back to work they are leaving them behind in shelters that have limited funds to care for the animals and find new homes. (Sophie's Circle)

Floridian families continue to struggle with the loss of homes and employment as a result of the hurricanes that devastated the region. (Smyrna Cares)

I plan to ride my bicycle from New Smyrna Beach, FL to, NJ. Along the way, on your behalf, I will GENEROUSLY TIP SERVICE PERSONEL THAT I ENCOUNTER AND OFFER PROCEEDS TO COMMUNITY AGENCIES THAT BENEFIT BY YOUR DONATIONS. I need your help to make this happen.

Kevin Mount, owner of Flaunt Electric Bicycles in NSB, FL has graciously offered to help sponsor the trip and is outfitting my Flaunt bike for the journey. I will leave NSB on Sunday morning, April 9, 2023, and I will assume all costs associated with travel, ALL DONATIONS WILL BE DISTRIBUTED TO THOSE IN NEED.

Together, we can bring a smile to the faces of those who serve us and enrich our lives.

Thank you for your support. I will post updates as I make my way north and record how YOU have made a difference. To get started, I am personally donating $250.

Best to all, Donna
