Charity Walks

Cross-posted from my blog!

Every year since 1997, with the exception of the two years I lived in Illinois, I've taken part in AIDS Walks, first in Syracuse, and then in Minneapolis. I've walked for the March of Dimes as well, and for The Race for the Cure. It's not always been easy, but it's always been good, and I have no intention of stopping as long as I'm upright and reasonably mobile.

For the past few weeks, I've been mulling over the idea of doing my walks with an Eons team. And lo and behold, my newest group, Charity Walks, was born today.

I'm working with Eons to provide shirts to walkers at cost. So far, everything looks good. The teams will be wonderful for the website from a marketing standpoint, and the shirts will be able to be worn to all of our walks.

So, what do I need from you? Help. If you're a member of a regional or a disease or condition related group on Eons, bring this to them. If you're devoted to a cause and enjoy walking for a purpose, join us. This undertaking is going to require a team of dedicated leaders, and I've seen enough goodness on Eons to believe I'm going to find them!

Hmmm ... I'm having second thoughts, Slyver. I don't think I want to be a walking billboard. I'd wear a t-shirt with a company's name that was also giving dough to the charity. So is Eons contributing t-shirts only, or are they going to contribute to the charities too?
