City Coach's Deanna Culbreath has up to 15 spots for the Hamptons half and 15 spots for the Hamptons full marathon on September 24th (East Hamptons, NY). The Somaly Mam Foundation has a charity team and their goal is to raise $50,000 collectively with each runner aiming for $2500. You will NOT be held financially responsible for the difference if you do not reach $2500. You will also be paired with a little girl who has been rescued. You will be sent her picture and her personal story of survival. You will be raising money for the orgnaizaition and giving a little girl who has survived sexual slavery a voice, when before she was silenced. Deanna wants to fill all 30 spots, less about the monetary goal, and more for connection 30 little girls will make with you. It will help empower them to know that someone half a world away cares and knows their individual story. Contact Deanna if you're interested! She'll send you more info about the organization and race!
