Sponsor Janet's "Run for a dream" - a dream to make a difference

Hi Friends,

As many of you may know, I am training to run my first half marathon, the Hamptons Half Marathon, on September 29, 2007. Running a long distance race has been a goal of mine since high school and I am thrilled to be finally on the path towards accomplishing this feat.

As exciting as finishing the 13 mile race will be, what will make the experience even more memorable and valuable is making a contribution to a worthy cause. I am hoping that you will help me achieve this goal by donating to the Lend-A-Hand India organization, which helps provide vocational training and career counseling to hundreds of deserving boys and girls from poor communities in India. The funding will go towards generating employment opportunities for the children and their families. To learn more about the mission of this noteworthy organization, please click on www.lend-a-hand-india.org

I am hoping to raise $100 per mile, for a total of $1300, but please feel free to donate on a per mile basis or a lump sum.

If you wish, you can contribute by sponsoring me in one of two ways:
1. Online through PayPal. Click on the button below - no PayPal account required
2. By writing a check to "Lend-A-Hand India" and sending it to the address below.

All contributions you make are TAX-EXEMPT. Also, most corporations will MATCH YOUR DONATION! You can find the appropriate forms by going to your company's philanthropy site.
