Ultra Marathon Pain for Foodbank Gain!
WE ARE AT THE $5,000 GOAL. THE FUNDRAISER WILL REMAIN OPEN BUT DONATIONS WILL NOT BE TRIPLE MATCHED PAST THIS POINT. Phew! I didn't think that Goal would actually happen, but what a wonderful thing you have all done!
Want to triple your donation to the Houston Food Bank?
Your $1 will equal $3!
Your $10 will equal $30!
Your $5,000 will equal $15,000!
Say what?
Whatever you donate my wife (Angela - below) will match (up to $5,000), whatever Angela donates, her company will match (up to $5,000). It’s a win-win-win!
All I’m going to do is try and run a 55k/34.2mile Ultra Marathon for the first time. It scares the life out of me to be honest but I will either finish it (yeah!) or experience the sweet kiss of death, so it’s a win either way. Oh, and it’s on my 55th birthday, so 5-6hrs of running around Memorial Park should get it in the top ten of my list of bad ideas.
Will you join me in making a difference? If you can’t donate that’s OK, but please blast it around your social media, and send it to your celebrity friends, to make sure we spend all of Angela’s money! Re Tweet/Gram/FaceBook/LinkedIn/Spam everyone
Why am I raising money for Houston Food Bank? Well, food insecurity is a huge challenge today and there is nothing as human or as direct as providing a meal to someone. Let’s be as human as we can be!
Whether your passionate about supporting those impacted by the pandemic, unemployment, mental health issues, addiction, or discrimination based on religion, sexuality, gender, disability, or race, the Houston Food Bank serves them all for you gladly.
You name it and any donation will help make an impact. Thank you in advance for your contribution.
