I didn’t know it, but I was lucky. I had loving parents to nurture and support me.  I grew up with dreams that I followed, and I have had the opportunity to make at least some of them come true.  

There are millions of children around the world who have not been as fortunate. Poverty, war and disease have robbed them of the ability to reach their full potential – and in many cases reach their first birthday.

Through my friends at NikiFit I was introduced to people who are trying to make a difference in childrens lives, by volunteering time and resources to Cherish Our Children International (COCI).  COCI is a non-profit international organization, dedicated to helping children in need.

I was inspired by the energy and dedication that COCI volunteers have displayed, and I want to join them in their mission.  I am now a volunteer for COSI’s October 25 triathlon team, and I want to support all of the athletes and the children for whom they swim, bike and run.

Please take a moment to donate to COCI.  COCI is a fully qualified 501c(3) non-profit organization, and your donation is fully tax deductible.

Thank you!
