Dear Friends, Colleagues, and Family,

On June 18, 2016 at age 54, I completed my first half marathon!  It took me 2:45:01.  The picture is me crossing the finish line.  More importantly, and thanks to many of you, I raised $5,500 for JA.  

As a JA Board Member, I've seen first-hand the positive impact JA is making to improve one of the greatest challenges facing our youth, financial literacy.

I thought this would be a "one and done" experience, but the staff at JA are very persuasive and convinced me to do it again.  I'm running the Lake Placid half marathon on June 10, 2017.

This year my goals are to raise $6,000, complete the half marathon in under 2:30:00 and lose 20 pounds!

I hope you will help me support JA by donating to my website.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to JA.

Many thanks for your support-- and please feel free to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

Thanks, Ray
