I am so excited to have the opportunity to give back by running in the Shamrock'n Half Marathon on Sunday, March 13th in Sacramento, CA.
My goal is to raise at least $500 for USABA and Service for Sight: Joining Forces and beat my personal record time for completing a half marathon!

Service for Sight: Joining Forces helps men and women returning from the military who have visual impairments or blindness because of their service. Nearly 20 percent of the injuries incurred in Iraq or Afghanistan are eye related. Soldiers who witnessed roadside bomb explosions can suffer degenerative damage that can lead to blindness.

The United States Association of Blind Athletes (USABA) is a community-based organization of the United States Olympic Committee. It's mission is to enhance the lives of blind and visually impaired athletes by providing the opportunity for participation in sports and physical activity.

Thanks for your support!

We have raised $722.00 of our $500.00 goal

The Delta Gamma Fraternity and Delta Gamma Foundation are proud to offer a new opportunity through Service for Sight: Joining Forces. Our program called “Anchor Run for the Blind” will allow women to use their love of running to “Do Good.”

The program will benefit both the Delta Gamma Foundation and the United States Association of Blind Athletes (USABA). Joining Forces spokesman LT Brad Snyder worked closely with the USABA in order to qualify for the 2012 London U.S. Paralympics swim team. Delta Gamma is proud to work with USABA on this project.
