Once upon a time I raised several thousand dollars for a charity in the name of my late, great friend Steven Flack who was suffering from leukemia. I was younger then. I was on Facebook then with hundreds of friends...some of them real friends and family. I was still working, so I had those business contacts, too. I had more energy for everything, including fundraising.
Boy, have times changed. Now I can't stomach the idea of asking friends and family to donate. Since I'm officially retired (early, I guess, since I turn 60 this year), I don't feel right asking people —who are still working hard to make ends meet—to help me with a charity drive associated with a race I'm doing April 15th.
BUT, if you've found your way to this blog post (perhaps with my help?) and have some spare change for a tax-deductible donation to a charity called the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF), please consider making a donation today. They can't accept donations related to this event after April 14, 2018. As of this writing I have raised $0.00! I'll match any and all donations made by April 10
