I am running the 2009 Chicago Marathon as part of a team in order to raise funds for RISE International. RISE builds elementary schools in Angola Africa where 27 years of civil strife has wrecked the infrastructure of the country and 3.5 million children have no school to attend.
Our team of 30 runners has a goal of raising $80,000 in order to build a new school in Angola. Your tax deductible donation will help us to make a difference in the lives of Angolan children.
