My personal message:

Every 2 1/2 minutes, somewhere in America, someone is sexually assaulted."
                                                -Rape Abuse Incest National Network (RAINN)

In 2006, 8482 sexual assault victims were served by rape crisis centers in the State of Georgia.
 

On September 27 and 28, 2008, I will be helping to raise awareness about sexual violence as well as funds to service sexual assault victims in OUR community by skydiving - 'Jumpin' For Justice' - at The Farm in Cedartown. 

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

These donations will support the work of the Sexual Assault Center of Northwest Georgia:

  • Serving all survivors and those supportive of them anytime.
  • Creating a safe, welcoming, respectful environment for survivors & families.
  • Providing timely access to services and programs.
  • Working to end the silence surrounding sexual violence.
  • Educating our community to the realities of sexual violence and its impact.
  • Fostering strong partnerships with law enforcement, hospital staff, and criminal justice agencies.

I've committed to supporting this cause by making this jump out of an airplane and I need your help.  Please make a pledge to help me meet my goal. 
 

Thank you in advance for your generosity and support.
 

For those of you who support me, please help me raise money for this wonderful cause.  For those who do not support me, your dontaion will at least get me thrown out of an airplane for a fall over 10,000 feet - and your money will support a great cause.  I promise to pull the ripcord unless the UGA Dawgs lose to the AL Tide that weekend... in which case all bets are off!

Please don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

This is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization and your charitable dontaions are tax deductible.
