The NF Marathon Team Program is an exciting way of supporting NF research and Children's Tumor Foundation programs. Individuals sign up to participate in an established marathon as part of the NF Marathon Team. Participants receive training in fundraising and have goals to raise financial support for the NF cause. Each walker/runner can qualify for free transportation, lodging and more for the marathon weekend by raising a certain amount in donations. In addition to raising much-needed funds for NF research and Children's Tumor Foundation programs, becoming a member or donor on the NF Marathon Team helps spread NF awareness. The NF Marathon Team Program also needs volunteers in the marathon cities to help with NF Team transport and to provide support during the marathon.

My personal message:
Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page. My name is Steve Chene and I was recently introduced to Preston who's life has been challenged by NF.
I am not new to the devastation that NF can cause or to running, but by combining the two I hope I can make a difference. Each day I run, I run for Preston. My thoughts and prayers are with Preston and his family everyday as I run. When I run, the only thing on my mind is how lucky I am and how challenged Preston has been. My training will have me running over 1000 miles prior to my next marathon in June and with each step, Preston is on my mind.
Some people are at awe of being able to train and then run 26.2 miles, but Preston is my real hero. His strength and bravery makes my journey easy.
Every chance I get, I educate people about NF and the devistation it can cause. I can only hope that with more awareness and funding, we will be able to find a cure to help the innocent children like Preston. 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. It's easy, so just click the "GIVE NOW" link below. All donations are 100% tax-deductible and every dollar brings us one step closer to that cure. Please feel free to email me if you prefer to send in a check or money (my email: CHENE3@AOL.COM ) and I will be happy to send you out a donation slip and a return envelope. Thank you very much for your consideration, prayers and generosity, Steve Chene p.s. many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
