Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit OHSU Foundation, specifically the Portland Alcohol Research Center, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

We recently lost our close friend, Ryan Tabor, to alcoholism and his life was cut far too short because of it. For those of you who didn't know Ryan, he was one of the most kind souls out there who always prioritized others before himself. Ryan loved the outdoors and was always running around somewhere, typically with his dog, Kashi.

To honor Ryan's life and bring awareness to the disease that is Alcoholism, we've decided to run a 5K every day for the 45 days leading up to Ryan's 30th birthday with a goal of raising 5K to donate to the Portland Alcohol Research Center. Every person who joins us in these efforts means the world to us and the Tabor family in honoring his life and the continued research and understanding behind this disease.
