If there are two things you have to know about me, they are that I LOVE CHILDREN and I'm SUPER NONATHLETIC (see photo of me during the 1996 Olympics for evidence)! Recently, I made it a personal goal to run in a race sometime in 2012 (because I've always told myself I can't do it), so I thought it'd be more even more meaningful if I did it for a cause beyond my personal desire to fulfill a goal. I will be running in the LA Big 5K race on Saturday, March 17th at 8AM. Just to clarify, I am NOT running the entire LA Marathon (I know.. the name of the race is deceiving, I'm sorry)! I would if I could, but I'm trying to be realistic here...

I know 5K is not much, but it will probably the most I've ever run without stopping... and I'm going to try my best. :) I would love and appreciate it if you supported me through prayers and/or by donating to Child S.H.A.R.E. (support, hope, advocacy, resources, encouragement), which is a program that seeks to provide stable, loving housing for children who have been abused and neglected. 

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to my fundraising efforts. Feel free to donate any amount... $0.10, $1.00, $10.00, $100.00, or more! Donations will continue to be accepted until June 17th. If you are unable to contribute financially, your prayers are still certainly appreciated!

Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions or want to know more!
Many thanks for taking the time to read this and for your support. :)
