Tyler Ryan Update 2013

March 1, 2013 By Jay's Valet

We are excited to announce that Tyler Ryan has made huge strides in his recovery since we last shared with you. As you may recall, Tyler, a Jay’s Valet team member and “Good Samaritan”, was involved in a horrific accident resulting in a myriad of injuries including the amputation of his left leg above the knee in November of 2011.

Since December 2012, Tyler has returned to work with the Jay’s Valet Team at Remington Park Racing Casino as our new Shuttle Manager. Within just a couple of weeks, Tyler already showed his true nature, going above and beyond the call of duty. He was witnessed, propping up every employee’s windshield wiper so they wouldn’t get frozen over in freezing rain. He did this with strong wind gusts making it rain sideways. Remington Park noticed his extraordinary behavior and presented Tyler with a Positively Incredible Behavior Award. His spirit, never hindered by this accident, is a true testament of his kind heart.

As a huge Oklahoma City Thunder fan, Tyler was surprised to have his Oklahoma Thunder prosthetic, signed by the entire team. Kevin Durant, also continues to show his support by continuing to wear Tyler Ryan’s “Keep Moving Forward” wrist band, over a year since the incident. We couldn’t begin to show the Thunder’s owner, Clay Bennett, our appreciation for all thesupport he and his team has provided Tyler throughout these trying times. Their support has truly helped Tyler to “Keep Moving Forward.”

We wanted to share Tyler’s story with everybody once more, just to show that all the support provided toward him has truly made a difference. Thank you all for all of your kind hearts.

1 Across Colorado Unicycles Across Colorado for Single Parents

August 16, 2012 By Jay's Valet

We are proud to announce our support of Mike Kalush and 1 Across Colorado, riding his Unicycle across Colorado to raise awareness and to pay tribute to single parents everywhere. With more than 13 million American’s struggling with single parenthood every day, 1 Across Colorado represents a symbolic struggle, by unicycling 500 miles across Colorado on one wheel. His two week journey begins this Friday, August 17th from the Kansas border to the Utah border.

His mission is to collect stories, not money. ”It’s a ride of respect,” Kalush said. “I see what my sisters go through. And just throwing money at them wasn’t fulfilling for anyone. Sometimes, just knowing that you’re noticed and appreciated is enough to get you through a hard time.”

In an interview with The Denver Post, Kalush describes why he chose a unicycle to ride across Colorado to raise awareness for single parents. “I’m riding my unicycle because it’s great symbolism: keeping perfect balance, you can never coast, you have to work for every inch. Falling off is easy, getting back up can be hard. And people with two wheels have no idea what it’s like to ride on one.”

Man Honors Single Parents With Unicycle Ride

In an interview with 7News, The Denver News Channel, Mike Kalush explains how a random encounter with a Unicyclist in Barcelona, inspired him to ride across Colorado to pay tribute to single parents.

If you would like to share your own story of single parenthood or have a story of a friend or family member that you’d like to share, you can post them on 1 Across Colorado’s Facebook or Twitter page. You can also contact Mike directly at [email protected]. To keep up to date with 1 Across Colorado’s journey and stories, you can also follow Jay’s Valet’s social media pages by clicking any of the following social icons:

We truly hope that this is a story that will move and inspire you.

The Journey

Mike Kalush of 1 Across Colorado will begin his 500 miles trek across Colorado this Friday, August 17th from the Kansas boarder. The journey will take about 2 weeks, east to west, from Kansas to Utah along the Interstate 70 corridor. He plans to stop in little towns along the route, in places he has never been before. Kalush’s father is coming from Michigan with a motor home to follow along on the journey, and to provide a place to sleep at night. Kalush plans to break up his days in two chunks, with 20 miles in the morning and 20 miles in the evening, depending on the weather. Kalush invites others to ride along with him on this journey and to meet up to share stories of single parenthood. If you would like to connect with Mike, you can email him at [email protected].

How Jay’s Valet Got Involved w/
1 Across Colorado

Jay Mills, the owner of Jay’s Valet, ran into Mike Kalush at an event in May, where he learned about 1 Across Colorado’s mission to spread awareness for single parents. Jay was immensely touched by the cause and instantly thought about several Jay’s Valet team members who struggle with single parenting on a daily basis. Partnered with Mike’s story of his seven sisters, six of who are or have been single parents, Jay was inspired. Without hesitation, Jay and Jay’s Valet stepped up to help support 1 Across Colorado’s mission, both by sponsoring the 1 Across Colorado’s Jersey and by helping spread awareness of the cause.

In response to Jay’s Valet’s devoted support, Mike surprised us at the Jay’s Valet office, baring gifts. Including a Jersey with the Jay’s Valet logo printed on the sleeve, and a T-Shirt with the 1 Across

Needless to say, Jay’s Valet is excited to support Mike Kalush and 1 Across Colorado’s Mission.

Winner of the “$1 Donation Per Facebook ‘Like’ Campaign”

July 10, 2012 By Jay's Valet

With the new generation, so closely attached to social media, Jay’s Valet is continuously innovating new ways to use social media to benefit nonprofit communities and our partners. Throughout the first half of June, we ran a Facebook Campaign that donated $1.00 for every Facebook “Like” to a nonprofit of our “fan’s” choice. From June 1-14, Jay’s Valet tallied nearly 300 new “Likes,” requesting fans to submit a nonprofit of their choice. We were able to reach nearly 13,000 people at the height of the campaign. On June 14, we posted a poll of the top 5 submitted nonprofits that were then voted on untill June 29th, when the winner, The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation, was announced to receive the $300 donation.

The top 5 nonprofits that made it to the final round of the campaign included The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation, Challenge Aspen, Theatre Aspen, Parkinson Association of the Rockies, and The Tennyson House for Children. The race was close, but The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation received 182 votes, making it the winner of the $300 donation. The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation helps individuals who have epilepsy by raising funds to provide grants for trained seizure-response dogs who may be able to detect an oncoming seizure and provide warnings and/or respond after the onset. For more information about The Chelsea Hutchison Foundation and how to donate, please visit chelseahutchisonfoundation.org.

If you would like more information about the success of this Facebook campaign to use for your business, or if you have any questions or ideas on how we can help your company through social media, please contact Blake Huneycutt at [email protected].
