$1800 Worth of Thank You!

You volunteered.
You donated.
You walked.
You ran.
You sweat.
You won prizes.

You raised more than $1800 to improve the lives of needy children in Nepal!

THANK YOU!

A huge thank you to all of our sponsors and everyone who participated and donated to the First Annual Driftwood Dash 5k! Justin and I appreciate everyone's support and enthusiasm for this event. We had a great time running it and hope everyone had an even better time participating.

Those of you who know me know I don't cry easily. While I was in Nepal I faced pollution, poverty and forces of nature I couldn't have imagined and never shed a tear, but the tears snuck up on me as I added up all the donations. Never having been to Nepal or volunteered for NOH it might be hard to imagine what this money will do, but I can tell you that it will go far and every penny is greatly needed and appreciated.

Thank you again for your participation and support. The Second Annual Driftwood Dash will be even better! Start training for next year...

In Gratitude,
Laura

PS. Run times and a photo/video slide show to follow in the next few days. Stay tuned.
