Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure.  It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

Five years ago, I was a single mother with two children to raise and support.  At that time, I was several semesters short of having my college degree.  I had been a "stay at home mom" from the beginning so my job skills were very limited.  This was one of the most frightful times of my life because I needed to finish my education but I was unable to find a job that fit with a traditional classroom schedule.  With a lot of help from my family and friends, I was able to return to school and work on finishing my education.  Not all single parents are blessed to have friends and family that can help them during such a challenging time.  The value of an education to a parent is endless.  An educated parent has an impact on generations to come.  These generations to come are the future of our society.  An education can make or break a single mother who is trying to survive while supporting her children.  Because I have been there myself, this fundraiser hits close to home.  I have chosen to support "Project Women" (www.projectwomen.org) and I am very excited to donate every penny given for this cause.  On June 21st, I will be participating in a 5k run which will benefit Project Women as well as 9 other local programs for women.  Please support me in my goal of raising $500 which I will donate the morning before I run. The benefits for this cause are endless! 

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Sincerely,
