Englewood residents, Dr. Joshua Hyman and his wife Liz Corsini, board members of Children of China Pediatrics Foundation (CCPF), are chairing the event. Dr. Hyman is also a participating surgeon in CCPF’s medical missions. Children of China Pediatrics Foundation sends volunteer medical teams to China to provide free surgical and other medical care to children living in orphanages. These children have been abandoned by parents unable to provide for their care. They often languish for years in institutional settings although a few hours of corrective surgery could dramatically transform their lives. Over the past 10 years CCPF has transformed the lives of hundreds of such children. Many have gone on to be adopted by families. Although all of the team members volunteer their time and many even cover their travel expenses, funds are still needed to cover the cost of equipment, supplies and accommodations. Change a Life: 2007 Bike/Hike details: Sunday, September 30 Ross Dock Pavilion Located at the foot of the GW Bridge, the pavilion is part of the New Jersey Palisades Parks. Time: 1:30 to 4:30 Registration Fee: $25.00 per participant The bike ride is a 14 mile route on the park's private roadway starting in Fort Lee, with the turnaround at the Alpine Boat Basin. The Hike is a 3 mile loop on a wide path next to the Hudson River starting in Fort Lee with the turnaround at the Englewood Boat Basin. Families with small children or grandparents can easily navigate the path. Both routes have breathtaking views. Afterwards, everyone is invited to participate in some family entertainment featuring traditional Chinese performances and activities for the kids.
