On April 21, 2008, I will run the 112th Boston Marathon. I am running for a reason much more important than the personal challenge of completing the 26.2 mile course. I hope you will consider being one of my sponsors for this event. All funds raised will support Samaritans, a nonprofit organization with the mission of reducing the risk of suicide and increasing awareness about suicide prevention throughout Greater Boston and MetroWest. Samaritans' volunteer-based, 24 Hour Befriending Services carefully train adult and teen volunteers to help prevent and reduce the risk of suicide. Samaritans also provides support for those who have lost a loved a one to suicide as well as community education to a variety of organizations throughout Greater Boston and Metrowest. Will you join me as a part of the team? I will do the running and together we will support Samaritans' important programs. To learn more, you can visit Samaritans website at www.samaritanshope.org. Thank you for your support! -Lisa
