BENEFITING: CAMP SUNSHINE AT SEBAGO LAKE
EVENT: 2012 ING New York City Marathon - $1 Mil a Mile
EVENT DATE: Nov 04, 2012
THE STORY:
I'm thrilled to be joining in the fundraising efforts of the 2012 ING New York City marathon by linking up with Crowdrise to benefit Camp Sunshine!
Camp Sunshine is a retreat for children with life threatening illnesses and their families located on the shore of Sebago Lake in Casco, Maine. Camp Sunshine provides 24-hour medical and psychosocial support to the families who visit. Their services, which include accomodations, meals, recreational activities, and counseling services are provided to visiting families free of charge.
I had the pleasure of volunteering at Camp Sunshine where I was touched by the experience of the families and children visiting as well as by the tireless compassion and enthusiasm of the staff which is comprised almost entirely of volunteers.
I was so impressed with the efficiency and compassion of this organization that I will be running 26.2 miles for Camp Sunshine on November 4, 2012. I would love for you to cheer me on by helping to raise enough money to send at least one family to this wonderful place.
