Dear Friends, Family, and Co-Workers,

I'm excited to let you know that this year I will be POWER WALKING the 2011 Annual TD Banknorth Beach to Beacon! I'm also excited to be walking as a fundraiser for STRIVE, a local nonprofit organization that serves teenagers and young adults with developmental disabilities. STRIVE serves over 600 young people from throughout Southern Maine in a variety of social, educational, and employment training programs. My goal is to surpase the $400 raised  at my last fundraiser for this organization and with your help I can! I know that times are tough right now- but please consider pledging even $1 or $2 per K. Your support is appreciated- and truly makes a difference in peoples lives at STRIVE. You can learn more about STRIVE by visiting their website at www.pslstrive.org

Your donation is tax deductible, and I hope you will help me to support this organization.

As always, thanks again for your support and truly touching the lives of people with developmental disabilities!

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

If you would like to make a donation by check, make it out to STRIVE and let me know via e-mail at hporter6@roadrunner.com . I will make arrangements to get it to STRIVE!

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
