Scott's Run for the ASPCA

Greetings Family and Friends,

I have completed a number of races in years past and decided for 2016 that I wanted to run a race raising money for charity.   I chose to support the ASPCA, because 4 years ago (Presidents Day 2011) Kristen's and I's life changed for the better when we took in our cat Milo.  Milo was a two year old short haired cat that my co-worker rescued from under his porch after a stormy night.   It took him a week to build up Milo's trust and lure him out from under his porch.  Through a series of events my co-worker needed to find Milo a forever home and through a coincidence of timing I was the one to take him in for Kristen.  At the time I felt a little suckered into taking him in, but he has melted my heart and I can't imagine a life without him.  Because of Milo I looked for a charity that was dedicated to helping  animals and the ASPCA fights to give abused and homeless animals a second chance at life.

On April 16-17, 2016, I will be running with Team ASPCA in the 2016 Star Wars Dark Side Challenge, a 10K then a half-marathon.  Team ASPCA is a national fundraising and endurance training program that I am excited to be participating with as a member.   I am honored to be raising the awareness and the much needed funding to support the ASPCA's programs. Your donation will help the ASPCA provide life-saving programs and services to millions of animals nationwide.  Please support me by making a donation and help me make a positive impact in the lives of animals!

According to the ASPCA a donation of:

$20 - Feeds an abandoned dog or cat for 3 weeks.

$35 - Vaccinates 10 homeless dogs and cats.

$50 - Provides a medical exam for both a puppy and a kitten.

$100 - Helps spay/neuter a homeless dog or cat.

$250 - Provides collars and leashes for the adoption of 40 dogs and cats resecued by the ASPCA.

$300 - Provides vcacinations of 25 rescue dogs to be placed for adoption.  

Thank you!

Scott
