* Latest New: Interview with Play City!

Hi everyone!!
Thank you for checking out my Give Forward fundraising page for Hope Runs 777 Challenge! Now, you're probably asking what is the 777 Challenge? In 2010, Hope Runs will be leading a Guinness World Record-breaking endeavor to complete 7 marathons on 7 continents in only 7 weeks. With a team of dedicated runners, we are committed to breaking some fantastic Guinness World Records (yes - there are some left to be broken in the area!). We are also proud to be running a green event through carbon-emissions-offset sponsoring. The Hope Runs 777 Challenge will help bring the issues facing the 14.5 million AIDS orphans in Africa alone to the forefront of the world's consciousness. By pushing ourselves to the limit, our team will raise awareness for the issues facing orphaned and vulnerable children (OVCs) all over the world, mobilizing people everywhere to become more involved. With each member of the team covering his or her own costs and committing to raise thousands more toward the cause, this effort will help to make a lasting impact in places that need it most.
I am one of only 30 runners from all over the world to have been selected and my task, although daunting, is reachable – but I need your help! I need to raise money for Hope Runs, as well as cover my own travel expenses!
I'm also asking for pledges in any way possible. ANY donations, no matter how small, will add up and will be most appreciated.
I'm also looking for corporate sponsors and donors. If your company would be interested in international exposure or in matching donations – please let me know. ANYTHING is most welcome.
The 777 Marathon Challenge is being hosted by Hope Runs, a US 501c3 non-profit organization fiscally sponsored by the international Humanities Center (www.ihcenter.org). For any more info go to www.hoperuns.org.
You can contact me on jschai@gmail.com if you have any questions would like more info.
