Help Fight Social Injustice

I, like all of you, have felt angered and overwhelmed by the social injustice in our country. On a different (unimportant) note, I made pre-COVID plans to run a 50 mile race this September, and my race is now cancelled. I would love to feel like I am doing something small to help fight social injustice in America, and could also use some serious motivation to get out the door and accomplish a personal dream of mine. I am committing to run an ultramarathon as a way to raise donations for the Southern Poverty Law Center Inc (SPLC).  The Southern Poverty Law Center is dedicated to fighting hate and bigotry and to seeking justice for the most vulnerable members of our society. Using litigation, education, and other forms of advocacy, the Center works toward the day when the ideals of equal justice and equal opportunity will be a reality.

There is certainly no pressure to donate, but I would be very grateful if you would consider making a donation. Your donation goes directly to the SPLC from this website.

If the total group donations are between $1-1,500, I will run 50 miles on my local trails on August 29. If the total group donations exceed $1,500, I will run a 100k (62 mile distance). Will and I will match the first $500.

Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns. Thank you again for considering a donation!
