Friends and family, I will be running the Chicago Marathon again this year in October to help raise money for the Palestinian Children Relif Fund. The money will help all the children in the Middle East during these hard times. Every penny will benefit the children. Please help me over achieve my goal of $3000.00.
Your contributions will help many children in need of surgeries, medical supplies, and bringing children to the United States for surgeries. I thank you in advance for your contributions.
For the sixth consecutive year, members of Team Palestine for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF) will take the 26.2 mile journey in the 2015 Bank of America Chicago Marathon to raise funds for PCRF. PCRF was established in 1991 to help address the medical and humanitarian crisis facing Palestinian youths in the Middle East, and has become the largest provider of free specialized surgical care to all Arab children regardless of race, religion or ethnic background (www.pcrf.net). Since its inception in 2009, Team Palestine has raised over $200,000 for PCRF (www.teampalestine.com). The Bank of America Chicago Marathon is one of the premiere marathons in the world and there is no better way to help thousands of children in the Middle East who are in need of desperate medical attention that is not available to them in their homeland than by running for PCRF. Please support our runners by making a donation to this worthy cause. Every dollar and every mile saves a child.
