A Chance to Give Back

For those of you who live in Nashville, you've probably heard of Ellie and her run for Africa.

Ellie Ambrose, who at the time was ten years old, and her family started Ellie's Run for Africa in 2004 to benefit the children of Africa. George and I have been involved in planning and executing the race for a couple of years, and I am encouraged by the support of the community in making a difference for these children and for allowing them to attend school.

If you're a runner, come and run! If you're not a runner (like me--not in a million years), you can support the run's efforts through giving. It's amazing--only $25 can put a child through school for one year! I bet there's not one among us that couldn't make that small sacrifice.
