Sam's House -- Great River Ragnar, 2010 |
| |
|
|
This August 20-21, twelve intrepid runners (minus the author) will be running 193 miles through Wisconsin and southeast Minnesota, part of a relay called the Great River Ragnar.
However, they are not running merely for sport. The team is raising funds for Sam's House, a children's home located in Pokhara, Nepal which provides love, security, and education to 25 orphaned and abandoned children.
Please look around our website and consider making a pledge to Sam's House. Ninety-five cents of every dollar goes directly to serving the children.
Sam's House... a home for today, hope for tomorrow! |
