Joggin' for Jenn is back! Well....sort of....

Dear Family & Friends,

I am hoping I can count on your support for a very worthy and credible cause.

My purpose is straight forward:


I am going to raise $2,000 for The Challenged Athletes Foundation by completing a 4½-hour “spin-a-thon” in the Tour de Cove on October 25, 2009.


Since 1994, CAF has raised more than $21 million – allowing the Foundation to satisfy thousands of funding requests from challenged athletes in all 50 states and dozens of countries. Whether it’s a $2,000 handcycle, helping underwrite a running prosthetic, or arranging encouragement from a mentor who has triumphed over a similar injury, CAF’s mission is clear: give those with the desire to live active, competitive lifestyles every opportunity to compete in the sports they love.

Sadly, despite our best efforts, many physically challenged athletes still remain on the sidelines.

Please join me in helping CAF fulfill its mission. Let’s help give these challenged athletes a fair chance to realize their dreams, and breath life into the stories of hearts and heroes, of inspiration and perspiration, of raw courage and “never quit” attitudes!


Thank you for your ongoing support,

Karin
