<div>Biking for Hope: Supporting Oyate Hope Academy!
</div>
<div>Saturday, May 3rd!!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hello, friends!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are Jenny and Mike Chang, two board members of Eagles' Wings, along with our incredible team: Ben Kim and Ryan Mulvaney.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>** Also joining us is John Myung and Matthew Chang!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And we are biking all the way to Milwaukee for Oyate Hope Academy on May 3rd! (Or die trying… but hopefully not.)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And we want YOU to join us—either by hopping on your bike or by donating to this great cause!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why Are We Doing This?</strong>
</div>
<div>Oyate Hope Academy is a beacon of hope for children on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, founded and led by Wendell, who has poured his heart into this community with his family for over 20 years. The academy provides not only a quality education but also love, mentorship, and faith in Christ to children who face immense challenges.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Many of these students come from broken homes, extreme poverty, and communities struggling with addiction, lack of education, and the absence of positive role models. In this region:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Over 70% of students drop out of high school
</div>
<div>Alcoholism affects approximately 80% of families
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>But here’s the good news:</strong> Christ’s love is greater than these challenges. When we come together to invest in these children, we help break cycles of poverty and despair. This ride is about giving them a future filled with hope.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How Can You Help?</strong>
</div>
<div>We are raising funds to help <strong>Oyate Hope Academy expand and renovate its school facilities.</strong> Your donation will go directly toward providing these students with a safe, welcoming, and well-equipped learning environment.
