The run that we are organizing to raise awareness for the global orphan crisis and funds for adoption is just over a week away! Along with being an organizer (& general errand flunkie), I'm a part of a team that will be completing 143 km in 3 days. We're going to have a lot of fun - we have no team name, so it might simply be 'Team Good Time' at this point. None of us are regular runners, so I'm sure we will be very sore... and making lots of jokes! Feel free to stop by on the highway & bug us for a bit - I'm sure we'll need any excuse we can get to take a breather!
Check it out!

If you are interested, you can make donations on the website - it all goes to orphan care! All the funds are going to:
1 recent baby home start in SA
1 expanding baby home in SA
1 family adopting from SA
& our local Adoption Support Centre
- more information is on the website about these
Donations of $20 & higher will receive a charitable tax receipt - so if you feel like sponsoring me for a few km's or donating a lump sum, that would be awesome! And if you just want to spread the word, post the run's website on your facebook, blog, twitter, etc. THANKS!
I.B.
