If you've read my "About Me" section, you'll know that I mentioned about being a Charity Athlete.
My goal is to raise money for a few charities using my running as the stepping stone. Just running a race is boring. I don't care too much about the medals or awards. If my running can help others in need, I vow to keep running and raise money. But I can't do it alone. I have many friends, but not everyone will donate.
Please help me on this journey and I will be grateful for your involvement. I don't ask for much. If 10,000 visitors put in $1.00 each, it can help hundreds of people that are desperately in need of help. Your $1.00 will mean much more than any dollar you've spent in your lifetime. These days, a $1.00 is pocket change. You can find coins laying around your apartment to sum up a dollar. I pick up coins on the ground and exchange it to donate to my charities. The little things matter the most.
Below are the charity groups that I am currently helping out with. I've attached the link that goes directly to the donation page. Remember, any amount is appreciated and thank you for even considering to donate.
