Karyne Flores's Fundraising Page
For 2010, I plan on running the Boston Marathon to help support Mass Eye and Ear which is a Harvard Medical School teaching hospital and world renowned research center. This will be my very first marathon to run and fundraise for an organization. Back in 1996, I moved to Boston for college and thought it would be great to participate and run one of the most prestigious marathons in the world. I then made it a personal goal of mine to complete it if ever I decided to leave a remarkable city. And now I have an opportunity to not only accomplish a long time goal, but also to help raise money for a good cause.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my Fundraising Page. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. My goal is to fundraise $5,000 by April 19th! And the count down begins!
Many thanks to all who have donated to this website. I really appreciate all your support. Also, I want to thank all those who came to the Marathon Spring Fling event. It was a success! I appreciate the efforts of all those who decided to be raffled off as dates and of course those who helped put the event together!. And a special thanks to Jay Dexheimer for being a very enthusiatic MC and of course, my girrrllll, Magali who was the key player in making this night a huge success.
Now it's just a few days away to run the 26.2 miles. It will be such an accomplishment to cross that finish line! And my feet will finally be happy once again!!!
