Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page! 

My goal for the marathon is 3:45; my fundraising goal for this year is to raise $ 3000.  Donating through this site is simple, fast and secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. Running Strong’s administration puts 94.5% of contributions toward programs and services. Contributions are tax deductible.  Every little bit helps.    Even a token gift is appreciated and will be put to good use.   And please forward this link to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

As many of you know, last year my close friend Bob Bievenour (who I met in 2009 as a fellow team member) invited me to join the Mount Zion UCC Church on a service trip to the Cherry Creek reservation in central South Dakota.  In addition to touring the teen center, Running Strong’s signature project, a personal highlight of the trip for me was the afternoon we spent unloading a truck with food boxes.  Seeing the Running Strong logo imprinted on boxes was incredibly rewarding.

Many thanks for your continued support!
