Many thanks to the all that have donated from PS.com; you helped raise over $5000 in just one week! This is in addition to the thousands that already flowed in from here to the Green Beret Foundation: http://www.greenberetfoundation.org/...nalsoldierscom

I am grateful to the outpouring of so many for this specific fundraiser in support of the Green Beret Foundation and encourage all latecomers to this donation site to continue to donate to the Green Beret Foundation.

Lets see how much we can raise together to support this Foundation in its start up-phase! Also keep the Green Beret Foundation in mind as the charity of choice, focusing specifically on Special Forces, in your next fundraising event.

Thank you, Dan

There's only a few days left to donate to Dan's charity run.

There's almost 20,000 individuals on here and only a few dozen donations, mostly by past and current SF soldiers.

Read the following and then go and give $5.00, $10.00 whatever to GBF via Dan's run.

Team Sergeant

Green Beret Foundation

The United States Army Special Forces, commonly known as the Green Berets, produces some of our nation’s finest and most elite warriors. They fight across a broad spectrum of missions in the pursuit of freedom for those oppressed and to protect our nation from those who seek to do us harm. They are known as our country's quiet professionals. The Green Berets have been defending our nation against its enemies throughout the last 5 decades in times of peace and war.

The liberties we enjoy as Americans don’t come without a cost. The Special Forces bear the burden of having the highest number of wounded personnel of any other U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) proponent. The Green Beret Foundation serves these quiet professionals who bravely serve the American people and its freedoms.

In an effort to fill the gaps in support left by the boundaries of other organizations, the GBF facilitates assistance to our wounded, ill and injured Special Forces soldiers and their families. We do this by providing resources to ease the burdens of some of the financial hardships that arise in their time of need as well as improving the quality of life for the soldier and the family.

Thanks to everyone for your generosity.

If you haven't given, there is still time!

Run, Dan, run!

I am expecting to see a fast time.

No walking allowed and whining and complaining only if you actually have blood in your shoes or 20 mph headwinds.
