Running For Hope

Thanks for showing interest in our fundraiser. Pam and I both will be running 26.2 miles in the Vermont City Marathon on May 29th as we conquer a personal goal while raising awareness and donations for an incredible cause: Project HOePpnEr. We have both been impacted personally and professionally by anxiety and depression. Connection is paramount when we feel overwhelmed, sad, and confused.

Project HOePpneEr's goal is to create opportunities for teens and loved ones to connect authentically and communicate honestly with one other, without judgment. We want everyone to know...and believe...that it is okay not to be okay. We need to continue to talk about this and support one another. We need to let our kids know that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. We also want you to know that we are here for you if you need someone to talk to.

Please consider donating to this cause; it will motivate us to reach our personal goal of each completing a marathon while supporting this outstanding Project. Project HOePpnEr was created to "increase awareness around that catastrophe that is teen suicide and strives to offer courage to kids to say "I need help" and for their loved ones to hear it."
