San Diego 911 Memorial Stair Climb is celebrating it's third year as a signature Fundraising event for the San Diego Relief Association's Benevolent fund, Firefighter Aid. It is the only 911 Memorial Stair Climb in Southern California.
Every day I think about taking a big pass on my morning workout I recall those 401 men and women who died responding to the aid of the occupants in the twin towers.
No, I'm not an athlete by any sense of the word. I do however, have the ability to push myself to achieve the goal... Make it to floor 30..and walk to the elevator. Each time I make it to the top I get the unique pleasure of connecting with real heroes from across Southern California. And then repeat times two. All together, it's about an hour workout. AND we all talk about the people who we are walking to remember. WE have vowed to #NEVERFORGET
So, Tomorrow is the big day! And I've been really low key on putting the fundraising squeeze on anyone.
But now, with only 25 hours before the start, I'm asking, begging, everyone to help me make my fundraising goal.
It's a tiny goal; just $250.00. that's not even $3.00 per floor of the two towers destroyed.
Its' not even $1.00 for every public servant that died in the towers on September 11, 2001.
Sheesh... now that I look at it that way, I really should have set a higher goal, because I know how generous all of my friends and family are.
So, please, can you help me make my goal? You can find my fundraising page right HERE
