When members of the Bacardi team take part in next month?s MS (Multiple Sclerosis) Bike Tour in Florida, it will also be with the support of TeleBermuda International, which is donating funds, and global calling cards to each of the riders.

?It is a genuine pleasure to help support such a worthy cause,? TBI?s director of marketing, Angela Ambrosini, said. ?Multiple sclerosis is a pervasive disease that continues to impact many individuals.

?TBI is happy to participate with both a bike tour cash donation and free global prepaid calling cards to each of the Bacardi biking team members. In this way, they can easily call home to let everyone know how their fundraiser opportunity is transpiring. We wish the ladies the best of luck.?

The 150-mile round trip bike ride between Miami and Key Largo in the Florida Keys takes place on May 6 and 7.

Denise Somerville, one of the Bacardi team members, explained why she was participating.

?MS is an unpredictable and devastating disease which can attack any one of us in the prime of life. Imagine one day you are ready to take on the world, and the next you are faced with the diagnosis of an incurable and debilitating disease. That?s why I?m participating in the MS Bike Tour and I am so happy to hear about TBI?s support.

?MS researchers have made extraordinary progress these last few years searching for a cure and your contribution will help support these vital efforts. Funds will also be used to support local programmes for people with MS and their families.?
