Our personal message:

Howdy Ya'll!  Welcome to the Hebron Community Church Team World Vision fundraising page!  We are a group of people from Hebron Community Church training to run the Chicago Marathon.  We like to run, but we aren't just running for ourselves; we desperately want to help change the lives of people living in Africa. We are running with Team World Vision in order to raise money to build clean water wells and provide economic support to communities in Africa plagued by the AIDS/HIV epidemic. 

This is our team:

Michael Overton
Jason Peoples
Ashley Phelan
Will Riggs
Jeff Strome
Clayre Turner
Daniel Turner

Kimi Williams

Our goal is to raise $8,000 by October 11, 2009!  Please consider helping us reach this goal by donating online!  It's easy!  When training for a marathon, every mile counts.  In the same way, every dollar counts, so please consider making a donation.  Any amount, big or small, is greatly appreciated!

If you would like to recieve updates on our progress in training and fundraising, email us at HCCTeamWorldVision@gmail.com!  We would love to have you take this journey with us!

We run because we care!  26.2 for Africa!

 

World Vision works to tackle the root causes of poverty by working with children, families, and their communities to provide things like clean water, health care, nutritious food, education, and economic opportunities.

You can support our efforts through Team World Vision by making a one-time tax-deductible donation.
