Keep it Real Wednesday

January 25, 2023

$25

On this exact day in 2019, we received a $20 bill and a $5 bill in the mail from a complete stranger named Kathy in Meshoppen, Pennsylvania.

Kathy saw the video segment of Rosemary and her Blessing Bike on Yahoo Now and took it upon herself to write this note:

Dear Rosemary,

“I saw your video on Yahoo. What an amazing woman you are and what wonderful children you have. I want to contribute to their vision of acquiring their blessing bikes for others”

Rosemary’s eyes filled with tears as I read it to her as she kept repeating in amazement, “all the way from Pennsylvania, that’s beautiful, all the way from Pennsylvania…”.

This humbling experience of the pure kindness of a stranger catapulted our vision into reality.

The moral of this story is …Never underestimate the impact of a kind gesture for it can have a ripple effect far beyond your imagination…

In this case, it was THIS kindness that helped to set these wheels in motion.

To Kathy in Pennsylvania and everyone else who has believed in us, trusted us, and supported us – WE THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts.

And just for the sake of nostalgia, you can find the video in the “Media links” tab
