PEOPLE I NEED YOUR HELP!

I tried to enter the NY Marathon through the lottery but didn't get in. This is how I came across Team For Kids. Team For Kids is an incredible charity that helps kids fight childhood obesity and by signing up with them, I am granted entry into the marathon. In addition to the entry, I get to train with all the other members and the extremely knowledgeable coaches. Running the marathon has already become such a more fulfilling experience now since I am able to do it with an amazing group. Here is the catch and this is why I need YOUR help. To sign up with Team For Kids I need to raise $2500. It's hard for me to ask all of you for your financial support, especially when many of you are already so generous to so many other causes. However, if you are able, please consider supporting me and this charity.

Team For Kids:TFK raises funds for programs which combat childhood obesity and empower youth development via running, goal setting and nutrition programs in low-income schools and community centers. These programs currently serve more than 50,000 children in New York City, throughout the country, and Cape Town, South Africa, all of whom participate in programs which provide unique opportunities for physical activity and academic and personal enrichment. When you donate to Team for Kids, you help vulnerable children develop the health, motivation, and character that will serve as a foundation for success for their entire lives.
