My personal message:
7/18/2005 - UPDATE - There is less than a week until Ironman. People ask me if I am ready, and my rubber-stamp response is always, "I better be!" Thanks for everyone's contributions to this great cause.

4/12/2005 - UPDATE - THANK YOU VERY MUCH EVERYONE!! I have reached my inital goal. I had a choice to either reset my goal, or just continue to solicit funds and have them be logged as above and beyond what was expected. Obviously that's what I did. Just because we have reached the initial goal I set, does not mean I am stopping here. TO THE MOON!! Please continue to give generously!!!

Well folks, it's that time of the year again. Every year I support a charity in need. This year, I am dedicating my participation in the Ironman Triathlon in Lake Placid, NY to raise funds and awareness of domestic violence. I have selected Safe Journey, a transition program for survivors of domestic violence and their children. 100% of your donations will help women and children start a new life free from violence.

Consider these statistics... -Every 9 seconds a woman is beaten in the USA. -Domestic violence is the leading cause of injury to women. -Children who grow up in violent homes have a 74% higher likelihood of committing criminal assaults. 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. Join me in helping domestic violence survivors. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too! -Adam "voiploser" Uzelac
