And on July 11 the start gun goes off…

30 June 2011

On July 11 at 6:00am PST, the start gun goes off for my 6th Badwater 135-mile Death Valley Ultramarathon, the most difficult race in the world according to National Geographic.

My participation in the invitation-only AdventureCORPS Badwater Death Valley race is the only fund-raiser for our Caring House Project Foundation for the remainder of 2011.

If you haven’t already, would you consider supporting my effort either on-line, over the phone or via the mail?

Donate $1 for every mile of my Death Valley race, or $135. Let me do all the running and struggling. I ask that you help those who can’t help themselves. Please consider more than “1” in the quantity box if donating online. For every $135 you donate you will provide one bio-sand water filter that we continue to send to fight cholera PLUS 450 meals for the most desperately poor and homeless in Haiti.

Donate $10 for every mile, or $1,350. Should you choose this option you will have built 1/2 of a concrete home in Haiti PLUS provided 1,000 meals! Talk about “ROD” – Return On Donation!

Donate $30 for every mile, or $4,050. This donation will have a huge impact in Haiti. You will have built one brand new concrete home for a family of 8 who were living in a mud or cardboard shack.Your home will have 2 rooms, kitchen, front porch and bathroom. PLUS you will provide 15 bio-sand water filters to fight cholera, PLUS 500 more meals! The ultimate donation support for the ultimate race!

If none of the above suggested donation options suit you, please visit our donate page,  Once there, scroll down from the top. There are 70+ alternatives to choose from, many less than $100.

If you would prefer to make your donation over the phone, please call 561.718.3061, or mail it to CHPF, P.O. Box 388 Boynton Beach, FL 33425.
