Running The Chicago Marathon for Charity

June 12, 2009 By Carleenp Leave a Comment

I am running the 2009 Chicago Marathon in October to raise money for PAWS of Chicago. PAWS is a large no-kill animal shelter that also has a spay/neuter clinic and feral cat spay and release program. I have agreed to raise a minimum of $600 for PAWS and certainly would like to raise even more! More about PAWS is available at my donation page.

If you are a reader, blogger or business, you can also learn about how you can help on the Charity Page here on this site. Bloggers and businesses can gain exposure and free ad space by donating!

I you want a more humorous (and more pleading) look at my fundraising efforts, visit my dog Ty’s blog, Puppy on a Roomba for more.

In any event, please consider donating. Thanks!

Thanks to those who commented during my comments for a cure promotion! I had less that the 50 comments that I hoped for, but I will be donating the full $50 anyway!
