BENEFITING: Water for People

EVENT DATE: Apr 01, 2013

HOURS PLEDGED: 21

Mileage Tracker: 40

THE STORY:

Overview

Jeremy, a former DJ, is running (and dancing).

He's doing it in his 27th year of life to benefit Water For People.

I am asking for help and support. And, I have a gift for anyone that supports my running for water campaign, including YOU!!!

Donate $27 dollars = link to favortie dance-Running playlist on Spotify.

Donate $54 dollars+ = mix-CD (signed and customized by Jeremy for you)

For the 27th year of my life, I am going after a HUGE goal: I'm hoping to inspire 1000 people to donate $27 to the #EveryoneForever campaign. $27 is the same amount as a fancy bottle of wine, a luscious haircut and shampoo, or 27ish songs from the iTunes store. 

So here's what I am asking... 

sacrifice just one of those things, JUST ONCE, and donate a little bit to helping improve the lives of others by supporting safe drinking water.

Put another way, I’ll need 270 people to donate $100. 

Here’s some extra incentive: for every $1,000 raised, I will pitch in his own $27.

That's right. h2o, 27K, and $27,000 - - - starting April 1, 2013

 

 

Programs Supported?

I am inspired to support the South & Central American Programs of Water For People because his second language is Spanish. I met a volunteer from the earthquake in Haiti (two years after) that gave him a good piece of advice: “Join an organization where you can leverage your language skills to support their programs – don’t come to Haiti, you don’t speak French or Creole".

 

Why dancing?

I have been endurance running since 2010. I have been ethusiastically dancing since 1988. And Jeremy used to be a disc jockey.  While the cardio benefit of running is wonderful, I like to spontaneously incorporate freestyle dance moves into my runs (as evident by the video attached). 

 

Other Information:

I am participating in a variety of 5K, 10K, 15K, half-marathons, fun-runs, and obstacle courses throughout Denver and the west coast in 2013. Please contact me if you would like to join me at any of these events.  I would happy to have others (family, friends, colleagues, and nomads) join me!  I can be reached on the 27K for 27th Birthday Facebook page, on Twitter, or via e-mail.
