jayfurrAnyone have $360 to spare for a really, really good cause? Or some fraction thereof? $20? $30?
Some time back I made the decision to go to the Philadelphia 3-Day the week before the Atlanta 3-Day. I had vague notions of spending the weekend volunteering or walker-stalking (basically roaming along the route cheering for the walkers). I really wanted to be a last-minute addition to the crew, but the organizers have all the crew they need. So, after some thought, I said "How can I actually do the MOST good?" and the answer was not long in coming: I should keep fundraising and attempt to add a third city -- Philadelphia, obviously -- to the two 3-Day walks I'm already going to be walking this year (San Francisco and Atlanta).
Monday morning update: I am $1080 shy of my $6900 fundraising goal for the Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Atlanta 3-Day For The Cure walks. If you would be gracious enough to help with a donation, it would be most appreciated. I will match any donation made on my behalf and my employer will match me, so the fact is, all I "really" need at this point is $360 in donations and I'd be at goal. You can donate at http://www.the3day.org/goto/jayfurr -- and many thanks to all who help and who have already helped!
