My personal message:

As many of you may know Chicago "The Windy City" is my kind of town. I like it so much, I have decided to run in the Chicago Marathon this October 12th. And if that weren't enough for extra incentive I will be running on behalf of World Vision, a childern's charity that provides Third World kids with food and medicine.

I hope you all will consider donating to this good cause, I promise to go the extra mile on behalf of these kids and your support would mean a great deal to me. So please be as generous as you can and thank you for your support.

Below is a little more about World Vision. They are a good charity and keep their cost to a minimum.

World Vision works to tackle the root causes of poverty by working with children, families, and their communities to provide things like: clean water, health care, nutritious food, education, and economic opportunities.
