My personal message:

Family and Friends:

Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page!

On January 13, 2008, I will be participating in the Chevron Houston Marathon. This year I am running with the Organization for Autism Research's (OAR) running team. All proceeds that I raise will go to benefit Autism research. My goal for this race is to raise $3,000.00.

Most of you are aware of how autism has touched my life, and the life of my family. My oldest son, James, was diagnosed with a form of Autism earlier this year, and together my wife and I are doing all that is in our power to help him. This is one way that I hope to help not only James, but all those who share this in common with him, their loved ones, and their friends and families.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to my fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Peace,

Jimmy Grace
