Be Part of the Athletic Giving Trend

According to the Run, Walk, and Ride Fundraising Council, dollars raised by people -like me! -willing to exercise for a good cause rose 12.1% in 2007 and are expected to do the same this year - with the help of people like you!

The big top 5 athletic fundraising events raised significant bucks:
$406 million...(+8.3%)...Relay for Life American Cancer Society
$125 million...(+9.7%)...Team in Training... Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
$116 million...(+5.6%)...March for Babies... March of Dimes
$106 million...(+18.1%)...Start! Heart Walk ... American Heart Association
$95 million...(+26.5%)...Walk to Cure Diabetes...Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

Compared to these numbers, Tri to End Homelessness needs just a meager $6,600 more to meet our 2008 goal. You can help RIGHT HERE or HERE or EVEN HERE!
