Race for a Drug Free Community
Donation protected
In 1997 my family suffered a major loss when my brother, Jason Hyduk, died a tragic drug related death.
My father made it his life's mission to ensure that no family would suffer the same loss we did and dreamed of a drug free community.
To honor his memory my father, Kevin Hyduk, proudly assisted in establishing the Marion Police Department’s K-9 Unit. He was forever giving of time and contributions to see that it continued; until his death in April of 2010.
In their honor, I am running the LA Marathon on March 15th and continuing my father's efforts in raising money for the Marion Police Department's K-9 unit.
The unit consists of three Belgian Malinois; two trained specifically for narcotics detection and one for bomb/firearm detection. All dogs are also trained to conduct building searches, assist in tracking/apprehending suspects, and other general patrol functions. Ongoing costs include training, veterinary expenses, equipment and supplies, and replacement of dogs when necessary. 100% of all money raised will go directly to the K-9 unit of Marion.
With each training step and breath, my goal is to follow in my father’s footsteps and help raise funds and support the K-9 unit of Marion,Iowa!
Thank you so much for your support,
