"What a fantastic, inspiring book! In these days of corporate greed, shady politics, economic unease, shallow pop-stars and the lousy newscasts, it was heartening to read about two seemingly average guys, doing something heroic and altruistic. Now, time to dust off my 25 year old Trek bicycle, do a couple of stretches and hit the road." ~Jon Klinkenborg
"This book is almost impossible to put down. After reading...it will be hard to imagine life without miracles." ~Barry
"I picked up the book for the first time last nite and have not been able to put it down. It is the most inspiring book I have ever read. To tackle what you both did is incredible. I have been pondering for some time attempting the three day walk for breast cancer and I have made up my mind to do it. Thanks for the inspiration." ~Kathy Olberg
"Thank you for saving your story and for sharing Katie's inspiration in your story. We all want to know that our lives have meaning and purpose. You shared an important part of your lives with us and let your readers know that Katie's little life also had a purpose. I read your book--cover to cover--on this 25th anniversary of your return and of Katie's wish for a 6th birthday party. Your book will be a gift to all of our family and friends. Thank you for caring and thank you for your friendship.
~ Craig and Nancy Campbell, parents of Katie February 24,1977 - February 15,1983
Twenty five years ago, Ken Rogers and Steve Anderson, with almost no bicycling experience between them, pedaled 10,288 miles covering 48 states, raising pledges for the first special wishes granted in Make-A-Wish of Minnesota history.
On the 25th Anniversary of the conclusion of the first Make-A-Wish of Minnesota fundraiser, Ken Rogers is finally releasing Pedaling on Purpose, the first-ever accounting of those historic events and a life-changing pedaling adventure. By the time that Ken and Steve returned to Minnesota on February 5, 1983 having raised over $20,000, five wishes had been granted in Minnesota and about 30 had been granted throughout the United States. Today almost 3,000 wishes have been granted in Minnesota and over 167,000 wishes have been granted worldwide in over 30 countries covering five continents, averaging a wish being granted somewhere in the world every 40 minutes!
THIS IS THEIR STORY.
