Runs Boston Marathon

Donates proceeds for Fund for Parks in City

In 6 days, on April 20th, I will be running the Boston Marathon! I wanted to say thank you to everyone who has supported my fund raising and training efforts. So far I have raised over $600, which is a good start to provide one young man or woman a chance to have an internship this summer at a company that will provide a great start for a promising career. It's my very own mini "Duffy" job stimulus plan! If you don't already know, this is my 3rd marathon in 2 years, and my second attempt to raise money for this outstanding charity.

I am running in support of The Fund for Parks and Recreation, which is a charity that focuses on providing teens with summer internships. Remember your first summer job? Studies indicate teen employment plays a critical role in keeping youth off the street, developing life skills and self-confidence, and preparing them for future success. With your help, we can open up a world of new opportunities for even more local youths by supporting The Fund for Parks and Recreation.
