Dude,

You still out there?

Aww Mandi, that's not exactly the news I bet we all wanted to hear! But come on CCFA, support Eli....Is there anything that the memebers here can do Mandi? It really sucks! After all what Eli is trying to do and they're not supporting him? I really hope that there's something that can be done! Keep us posted!

Thanks for the update, Mandi.

Good Luck Eli!! Hope things work out

hey peoples, just a quick update from Savannah, Georgia. I know Mandi already touched on whats been going on a bit, but I just wanted to come in and say thanx again for everyones help, donations, wishes and support. At the moment I am having real issues with the CCFA as far as their support goes. I'm hardly getting any feedback when I ask them for updates and if the websites been updated. All I'm getting is the feedback my sis is having with them thru phone calls almost on a daily basis and from some of you guys here who stay in contact with them. Sis has been trying to keep in touch with them since Im on the road a lot and its frustrating her just as much. They keep giving her excuses as to why they cant update the page until 2009 cause of software problems and lack of IT guys, etc. Also trying to still get sponsors and the only one we've gotten so far is Panera Bread who does a lot of charity work and are willing to donate proceeds of meals bought to the CCFA when people come in with the flyers for CyclingAcrossamerica. That would help a lot and weres still working on other sponsors like Best Western who showed interest but we're still waiting to hear back from them. Basically a place like Best Western or whatever hotel, hostel or Inn wants to support would help me tremendously cause Im going thru LONG stretches of nothingness and darkness at times, not to mention its getting dark earlier and colder so I gotta keep it safe more than anything. I'm thinking about Florida for a few months to keep warm while at the same time even if Im working to sustain myself I plan on still doing my thing to raise money and awareness on a daily basis wether it be by biking to a job or biking every day just distributing flyers and such along the beach and tourist spots. I figure I can stay involved down there for a bit and I still have plenty of friends, family(who would also get involved and/or donate) and a lot of my stuff down there from my old apartment with an old roommate so that would help me and the cause also. And when March or April comes around I can continue out West and still keep raising money and awareness. I had thoughts of ditching CCFA and joining another charity but I dont want everyones efforts here and money to go to waste so I'm gonna stick it out with them till the end as much as I could just to make sure that we didnt do this for nothing.
If anyone has any thoughts, questions, ideas, advice feel free to post em or hit me up. I'll be here for maybe another day or 2 and then head to florida.

Maybe the CCFA really doesnt understand the the true scope of what you are undertaking.
Wish you the best Eli, just sent some support, hope it helps. Stay safe and stay STRONG!

you're the man D! I dunno, its just frustrating not getting any feedback from them. I'm about to email them again for an update on how things are going.
