I will be spending the next few months training to run a half-marathon this winter. On January 25, 2009, I will be running the ING Miami Half Marathon. However, the purpose of my running is not only for the personal accomplishment of completing a 13.1 mile run. More importantly, I am training in order to raise money for Chai Lifeline, a wonderful organization dedicated to helping very sick children and their families.
http://www.chailifeline.org/
Chai Lifeline is an international organization that provides year-round emotional, social, and financial support to more than 3,000 children and their families every year. Through two-dozen free programs and services that touch each member of the family, Chai Lifeline helps children with life-threatening and lifelong illnesses and their families live full and happy lives despite the presence of illness.
I am running this race on behalf of the philanthropic effort of our beta chapter of Alpha Epsilon Pi. I extend my thanks to anyone who donated to my fellow brothers Josh Nason and Justin Cohen who last year successfully ran and raised $7200 to help Chai Lifeline.
All donations are 100% tax deductible. Please contribute, by visiting my personal Team Lifeline Website at (http://www.teamlifeline.org/mypage.php?myid=55311 ).
Or you can also donate by sending a check to
Adam Putzer
140 Thurston Ave.
Ithaca, NY 14853
If your company has a matching gift program, your gift may be doubled or tripled.
Thank you for supporting me, and in doing so, helping children and their families cope with the diagnosis, treatment and aftermath of serious pediatric illness.
