TIZIANO PROJECT

NYC Marathon 2008
Training buddies: Charla, Carla, Stacy and Jill

Leslie Lewis Sword's Fundraising Page

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!  This is my first (and quite possibly ONLY) marathon, and your contribution will help me finish this 26.2 mile race! (26.2 miles?!?!?! Yep!)

The Tiziano project gives cameras to people in countries like Rwanda so that what was once unseen can be revealed to the rest of the world.  See their website at: www.TizianoProject.org/

I met the founder, Andrew, at Miracle In Rwanda's last run in Los Angeles, and he is passionate about this cause.  $1000 will buy 4 cameras for the children he helps.

 

His group was able to help CNN report on the situation in DR Congo just recently, and here is a link:

Many thanks for your support -- and please forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Love,

Leslie
