Community Supports Hope Ride

The Restoring Hope Ride, a first-time cycling event held at nearby Capital Brewery on May 16th, brought in 220 registered bike riders and many more loyal supporters in what will become an annual fundraising event to benefit Restoring Hope.

The riders braved a stiff early-morning wind as they headed out on one of the 3 challenging courses, but all safely returned to enjoy the live music and the company of good friends on a sun-splashed day filled with fun activities.

An event like this would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors, in-kind contributors, volunteers and all of the dedicated members that served on the Hope Ride Committee. Thank you all!

Support the Dream

Renovation plans are in place, but the Transplant House is currently closed to patients until the necessary funds have been raised to start the renovations. Please help us open the doors!

There are many ways to help support Restoring Hope, including tax-deductible donations that can be made via PayPal.

If you have any ideas that might help get the Transplant House up and running as soon as possible or know of someone that might be interested in supporting this cause, Please call or email Cindy Herbst.

Open The Doors: We Need YOUR Help

Many area residents pass by Restoring Hope on a daily basis under the impression that the House is currently open and providing care to guests because the exterior of this Middleton Historic Landmark is in such good condition. Unfortunately, that is not the case.

The Transplant House turns away an average of 15 families per day who inquire about lodging for themselves or a family member dealing with a serious illness requiring an organ or bone marrow transplant. The doors remain closed until much-needed renovations can be made.

The cost of lodging for one night once the doors are open is $30. This has become the inspiration for the "Thirty Bucks For Life" campaign to help raise awareness and funds to support the House so that we can begin to help transplant patients like Lauren.

We hope that you will consider contributing $30 RIGHT NOW and to tap the amazing power of your friends, family and associates. If you're able to contribute more, that would bring us even closer to serving patients and their families. Thanks for making a difference in our community!
