Our personal message:

Hi Friends!  Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

On May 2-3 I will be participating in a race called The Relay, to raise money for an organization called Organs 'R' Us.  This organization helps to raise awareness on the importance of organ and tissue donations through athletic events.  Our team will be running a total of 199 miles continuously from Calistoga to Santa Cruz

Being a college student, generally I do not have the funds to help everyone out that needs aid.  However, with the spare time I find between classes and homework I can help out others by running.  Running not only improves my own mental health which I can pass on to other people with positive energy, but I can help those in need by raising the money that I cannot always give out of my own pocket.  I love being able to help people, but there is only so much time and assistance a single person can give before all of their personal resources are exhausted.  Though with the help of others, this exhaustion may not come and the individual can continue with their service to society. 


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

Please help me raise awareness and assist those in need of organ and tissue donations now.  We can plan for the future, but the future is unpredictable, even a little help could save someone's life.

Thank you for making yourself aware, and thank you even more for donating.
