Boston Marathon USASOC charity run
Listen up!!!!
One of our own is running the "Boston Marathon" and attempting to raise money on behalf of the Green Beret Foundation. Now drop what you're doing and go and pledge 5.00 bucks to the cause!!!!! Then send this to all your friends and tell then I said go and give 5.00 bucks to the cause. Remember, it's for wounded Green Berets and their families.

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! I will be running the Boston Marathon as a part of the USASOC Fund Raising Team on 19 April 2010. Our team goal is to raise a minimum of $250 per team member, but I'm striving to raise as much as possible (currently as least $5000).
My fundraising will directly go to support the Green Beret Foundation. Your contribution Donations to the Green Beret Foundation are tax-deductible. The GBF Federal Tax ID Number is 27-1206961.
Donating through this website is simple, fast, and secure using credit cards with the "Sponsor me now" links. You may also donate directly to the Green Beret Foundation or offline by contacting me directly (please make checks/money orders payable to "Green Beret Foundation"). If you donate directly to the GBF, please let me know the amount you donated so I can update my total fundraising stats.
Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too.
Thank you!
Dan H.

All,
Thank you for the support! You're supporting an outstanding Foundation by donating!
Those of you that would rather write a check, instead of donating online, can make the check out to the "Green Beret Foundation". Get the check to me if you're at Fort Bragg or mail them directly to:
Green Beret Foundation
PO Box 8250
Huntington Beach, CA 92615
If you mail a check IRT this fundraising event, please let me know the amount VIA private message for the fundsraising target statistic.
You may have also noticed this web site's support to the Green Beret Foundation with the image/link from the bottom of every page on this web site.
Thanks, Dan

I see six confirmed donors. I will donate $5.00 194 times through my company for $970.00.
Winner winner chicken dinner.
You can keep the head gear.
About the knife:
I am sure there is a worthy SF candidate who would love to take it with them on their upcoming journey. I will defer the choice back to you and the board.
I will pay to Dan online.
Hope this helps.
It's Saturday night. I am off to the pub. But I won't be eating any Chile from New Mexico.
