Friends and Colleagues,
Each year I use the OC Half Marathon (May 7) as a healthy way of raising dollars for a charity that I’m passionate about: Project Youth – OC. As an added bonus this year, I will be doing a 26.2 mile warm up at the London Marathon on April 23. I’m hoping the extra miles will mean extra funds raised for Project Youth — a local non-profit that, for over 50 years, has been committed to keeping at-risk youth in school, healthy, and drug free through a broad range of programs focused on education, counseling, mentoring and family strengthening. See below for a pic of one of our recent graduating classes.
This year, as the President of the Board for Project Youth, I feel an even greater sense of responsibility to raise dollars that I know will be used to expand Project Youth’s reach. If your circumstances allow for it, please consider making a contribution to this worthwhile organization: Click Here to Donate
With sincere appreciation,
Maria
