Ucan2

Dave Wehrle challenges you to support Ucan2′s LifeStraw Project in honor of his upcoming 50th birthday! Dave Wehrle of Madison, CT, will attempt to bench press 50 lbs more than his body weight on his 50th birthday. His goal is to weigh 185 lbs and bench press 235 lbs, but any 50 lb differential will work (weight 190lb/bench 240lb). Dave is donating $500 to LifeStraw and if he happens to fall short of his goal, will contribute an additional $10 for each pound he missed his target by. Official weigh-in/bench press will take place Friday July 20th. Please support Dave in his endeavor by donating today.

Dave would like to thank the Leckey family, particularly 5th grader Brett, for adamantly supporting this very worthy cause.

Thank you!!

Brett was invited back to update these amazing high school students on his project. They are such wonderful role models of getting involved and making a difference for kids and adults. We are always so impressed by the number and the energy of this group of teens.

What an amaazing night! We had 75 people, adults and children, and the whole restaurant at the Aqua to ourselves. The tables were set beautifully with blue and green helium ballons tied to bottles of h2ope water. Cheif and Stephan played guitar and sang while people came in and mingled. The food was delicious and kept coming! Display tables were set up in front with t-shirts, examples of the change collection cans, the gift cards, and a large poster board showed pictures of each of the three projects Ucan2 is involved in. H2ope set up a display table too. Brett gave one of his best presentations and our friends and family got to see all of things we have been up to. I was afraid to give my part of the speech, but as soon as started talking about what I am so passionate about, te words just came and I was very pleased. The energy and momentum of the night lingered for weeks.
Thanks to all who made it such an incredible night for us.

I don’t know how he does it, but Brett stood up in front of over 100 high school students to give his presentation. He had a couple of great one liners.
