Peace Through Action Went for a Ride…with Peace Promoter Kelly Motley!
In June 2023, Peace Through Action USA volunteer peace promoter, Kelly Motley chose Peace Through Action as a charity to accompany her on her special Power of Love bike ride to raise awareness about breast cancer and to promote love as a force for healing from any personal or social challenge.
Peace Through Action is honored that Kelly selected us as a charity of focus during her Power of Love ride. Starting June 1, 2023, Kelly cycled La Velodyssee in France, from Roscoff to Hendaye. Over the course of the 30-day ride, Kelly brought attention to Peace Through Action’s mission and opportunities to do something for peace to her current supporters and new audiences. You can still learn about Kelly’s journey by following her on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.
Here’s what Kelly had to say about why she chose Peace Through Action:
“My Power of Love event is about showing the powerful force of love to help people heal, overcome loss, and become whole after cancer or another unexpected life circumstance. My strength coach concludes our training sessions with one word when I leave the gym: It’s not “goodbye,” it is “peace.” For me, peace is about releasing worry, fear, and feeling safe to imagine. Peace is about having a future. Peace brings love and kindness. I support Peace Through Action as it works to bring communities together to find solutions that lead to economic opportunities and better wellbeing for individuals and communities.”
Even though the ride is over, we continue to celebrate Kelly and the passion she is bringing to promote love, healing, and community–peaceful practices we can surely get behind.
