AIDS Marathon Donations
Hey Guys,
A couple of really close friends of mine (Jackie Minor & Christina Ballard) will be running a marathon to benefit AIDS patients in the Bay Area. Please check out the link below and donate something if you can. You can drop as little as $5, or up to whatever you'd like. Please know that any little amount helps. Our Friend Tosha worded it better than I in an email she sent me early this morning; here it is:
I just wanted to send out a little reminder to encourage you all to show some support for our dear friends Christina and Jackie. They are running a half marathon with AIDS Marathon Training Program this summer. Some of you may remember that I ran my first full marathon with the same training program a couple of years ago and it was one of both the most difficult and the most rewarding experiences I've ever had. What kept me going at mile 20 of the race was the thought that so many of my friends had believed in me as well as cared about the cause. Some friends donated as little as $5 and in the end I had raised more than $3400 for HIV/AIDS services for the uninsured.
I also had 2 friends who took the subway throughout the city to cheer me on at different points along the race. So, if you're not doing anything that weekend, the enthusiasm at a race is contagious and I encourage you to pick a spot along the course to cheer them on.
Below is info on how to donate for Jackie. Just remember that even the smallest gesture can make a big difference to someone you care about. I made a small donation and Jackie's already told me she loves me twice! Peace. -Tosha
