Compassionate Action for Animals

Welcome to my fundraising page!
 
On July 11, 2009 I will be participating in the Twin Cities Lifetime Fitness Triathlon near Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis, MN. As some of you know I’ve wanted to complete a triathlon for many years now. In addition to proving to myself that I am capable of exertion for that length of time (I know I’m not going to die, but I’m still a little freaked out about not being able to sit around and snack all morning that day…) I am also using this as an opportunity to raise money for the best non-profit organization in the Twin Cities: Compassionate Action for Animals.
 
I’ve loved animals even longer than I’ve wanted to do a triathlon. Compassionate Action for Animals (CAA) works to create respect and justice for all the animals in our world by reducing their suffering.  I’ve set an attainable goal of raising $285 dollars.  This money will help fund outreach programs, cooking classes, vegan food giveaways, nationally recognized conferences, as well as other amazing educational events.
 
Omnivores: To further prove to you how excited I am about adventures and animals I dare you to go vegetarian for a week or vegan for 3 days. If you can show me that you’re up for one of those challenges I will match your donation!  
 
Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. No donation is too small and all you need to do is click the "Sponsor Me Now" button above.  If you prefer to send a check, make it payable to Compassionate Action for Animals and send it to me:
 
1890 Buford Ave, suite 280, St. Paul, MN 55108

Let me know if you have any questions and thanks in advance for your support!
