Dear Friends & Family,

This year I'm taking part in the 2008 Santa Speedo Run to raise money for Cradles to Crayons, an organization which provides children across Massachusetts age 0-12 with the everyday essentials they need to feel safe and ready to learn. With the winter upon us and our country’s economy taking a turn for the worse, the need this year is greater than ever! Cradles to Crayons is predicting they will provide 10,000 coats to kids this winter. For more information about their programs please visit www.cradlestocrayons.org.

I know this is a tough year to be asking people to reach into their wallets, but I'm sure you can imagine, if you're feeling a pinch then Cradles to Crayons is feeling it even harder.  Any help you can offer, is more than appreciated!

You can donate online with a credit card. All donations are secure and sent directly to Cradles to Crayons by Firstgiving, who will email you a printable record of your donation.

Please send my page on to anyone who might like to donate!
