First, thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

Along with thousands of other participants, I've made a commitment to participate in Hoops of Hope, a free throw shooting marathon on Saturday August 22 at Second Baptist Church, Houston.  I'm pledging to shoot free throws for ONE HOUR in the hot Texas sun to help bring relief to children in Zambia through World Vision.

I'm doing this to help children who have been orphaned by HIV and AIDS. Over the past five years, Hoops of Hope participants have raised over 1 million dollars. The money raised by participants has gone to sponsor over 100 orphans, fund a water project in Kenya and build a high school and two medical clinics in Zambia. Across the world over 5,700 children every day are losing one or both parents to HIV and AIDS.

Will you please support me by making a tax-deductible donation of $10-$25 on my webpage?  Donating on this webpage is simple and secure. If you would like more information about Hoops of Hope and current projects or would also like to join the free throw shooting marathon, you can visit the Hoops of Hope website at www.hoopsofhope.org.
