Love Runs

 

This year I am running the Detroit Free Press Half Marathon on Sunday October 15th.  I am doing something that I haven’t done before and that is fundraising for a run that I am participating.  It gives a new goal, a new drive and a new purpose behind my running.

Here is a little bit about Love Runs:

Love Runs is raising money to fight Human Trafficking.

Michigan currently ranks 2nd worst in the nation behind Nevada, and we used to be first and worst!  Claiming Michigan is pure rings hollow until we end the contamination of human trafficking.

Modern-Day Epidemic of Slavery

Every 30 seconds, Human Trafficking claims a new victim.  Children of all ages and backgrounds, including some of the most affluent, are being hijacked into a living Hell of physical, sexual and emotional exploitation, and torture…all around us.

If you feel so inclined and moved by this organization, I encourage you to make a donation.

Thank you for taking a minute to read about this organization.  I look forward to meeting and exceeding my fundraising goals!
