All of us at MicroKnowledge feel a deep commitment to our community and to the many non-profits that make up the fabric of the region. We hope you will join us in supporting the organizations listed below through one of these many special events:
Circles of Mercy Community Walk
Saturday, May 30
11:00 am in downtown Albany
Circles of Mercy, which strives to improve the quality of life in the community by working to end the cycle of poverty, especially among women and women with children, will participate in the 27th Annual Freihofer’s Community Walk. You can help by walking with the group or sponsoring the walkers. This year’s course is new; a 3K (1.86 miles) loop follows part of the same route as the Freihofer’s Run for Women 5km Fitness Run.

Tour de Cure to benefit the American Diabetes Association
Saturday, June 7
The MicroKnowledge team is committed to ride and raise money in this inspirational event not only because 29 million people in the United States have diabetes, but because we personally know some of them and want to do something to help. We have set a goal of raising $7,000 this year and we’d love your help. Support the MicroKnowledge Tour de Cure team.
