Help Support Christina's Kidz At The ING Miami Half-Marathon On
January 25, 2009!  

Hello everyone, this is Christina Reyes, founder of Christina’s Kidz. During the past two years I have run the ING Half-Marathon as a fundraiser for Christina’s Kidz, the South Florida chapter of the Brain Tumor Foundation for Children. Needless to say it has been a big success. We have raised over $90,000 between the two years of participating in the ING, and much of which has already been distributed to families as they are caring for their children.
 
I know these are tough econimical times for everyone, but if we think it's tough for us, can you IMAGINE what it must be like for these families that are caring for thier children!!!
 
Please give whatever you can and encourage everyone you know to get involved.
 
We are having a post race fundraising party at 5420 s.w. 82 ave., 3:00 p.m. with live music and great food. Come join us!!
 
IT WILL BE A LOT OF FUN AND FOR A GREAT CAUSE!!!
 
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us at www.christinaskidz.org, and as well as to find out further information about Christina’s Kidz.
 
Thank you for your participation or for your generous donations. Always remember that you can make a difference in these children’s lives!!!
I hope to see you all at the race.

Sincerely,
Christina Reyes
