Hello to my friends and family!

As most of you who know me well, I am passionate about many things in life … children, running, Purdue University Dance Marathon, and helping those who can’t help themselves are just a few of those passions.  This year in an effort to raise money for the Purdue University Dance Marathon to benefit Riley Hospital for Children, I’m combining these passions as I “Run for Riley” at the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon on Saturday, November 3rd as I attempt to complete the half-marathon.  http://monumentalmarathon.com/

Please consider visiting the attached link to my Dance Marathon “donor drive” site and pledge to support me as I “Run for Riley” on November 3rd.  http://www.helpmakemiracles.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.participant&eventID=1181&participantID=120446.

I will also be participating in the Dance Marathon on November 17^th through November 18th and will spend 18 hours  “Dancing for Riley”!

As a part of the Riley Development Committee for Purdue University Dance Marathon, I have had the opportunity to spend time with some of the families and children that have spent days, months, or even years getting care for their children at Riley Hospital for Children, and I am so inspired by the stories of healing and transformation that have happened at Riley, and continue to happen. However, they need our support in order to continue this amazing work of healing for families that desperately need this world-renowned health care. That’s why we dance for 18 hours… it’s not just about the fun we have, or the grand total, but it’s about the families and children that are given the opportunity of healing and life through Riley Hospital for Children because of the money we raise.   

If you have any questions about my fund raising efforts, the Monumental Marathon or Purdue University Dance Marathon for Riley Hospital for Children, please contact me via email, or at (317) 383-7929.  I want to thank you in advance for any funds you can donate to this worthy cause.

For the Kids!

Thank you,
