I need your help raising money to support visually impaired athletes, such as Michael Somsan. I have the incredible opportunity to accompany Michael as a guide runner in the National Blind Marathon Championship on December 2, 2018. Serving as a First Lieutenant in the army, he survived a gunshot wound to his head, but lost his vision, while breaking up a fight. He runs marathons, including two Ironman Triathlons and the Kona Ironman World Championship.Watch this inspiring 4-minute video of Michael’s journey (https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2hwlfp).

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. Thank you for deciding to support Delta Gamma and USABA with your gift. If you are not a runner and simply wish to support this effort, click the button to the right that says "Donate to the Cause." If you are a runner and wish to set up your personal fundraising page, click the button that says "Take Part." For more information on the Anchor Run program and how you can become a guide runner for a blind athlete, visit our website or email anchorrun@deltagamma.org.
