Why is Kurt participating?
The relationship Kurt and Kelly shared with the group solidified into a real family last year. They are a team of Poverty Road Warriors, armed with faith and backed by CCHD, fighting the battle to brake the cycle of poverty.
In January of 2004, Kurt broke his leg in a fall on ice. That experience gave him perspective on what it means to struggle on a daily basis. His struggle was temporary, but the cycle of poverty continues every day. That's why he rides.
