Hi Friends and Family! Hope this note finds you happy & healthy--

This year on October 9th, I'll be running the Twin Cities Marathon on behalf of Children's Hospital. As part of Team Superstars, I'll be fundraising to benefit Children's, an independent non-profit that provides top-notch care for thousands of children. Donations to Children's go directly toward: research and clinical programs designed for children, covering costs for families who can't afford care for their child, training for pediatric care professionals, and more.

As part of Team Superstars, I'm aiming to raise $750 toward our collective $100,000 goal. Even $1 helps us get closer to our goal! You can check learn more about how Children's makes a difference by reading some of these families' stories:  https://www.childrensmn.org/blog/childrens-stories/amazingis-stories/ and checking out: https://www.childrensmn.org/support-childrens/why-support-childrens/

Thank you so much for taking time to learn about the Hospital's work, and for considering a donation. Every mile we run will be in support of Children's Hospital kids--we are ready to take on 26.2.

If you have any questions, please feel free to visit www.childrensmn.org/childrens-events/teamsuperstars/ or email me at maria_bowe@cargill.com. If you'd like to donate, you can do so online via the "Donate Now" button to the right, OR send check or cash directly, just let me know!

Thank you again--see you at the finish line!
