Lifewalk

It is quite seldom that I ask for money from you, my good readers. Of course, part of that could be that I'm not providing you anything that's worth paying for...

But this one time, I'm just putting this out there. Don't worry, you don't have to participate. You can just continue reading along and I'll continue posting. In fact, I'll probably not post about this again, I just thought I'd put this out there in case you're interested.

On September 22, 2007, I'll be walking to raise money for the Mooresville Community Pregnancy Center. Who are they?

The Mooresville Community Pregnancy Center is an evangelistic ministry which upholds the Sanctity of Life by providing practical assistance, encouragement, and unconditional love to women and families facing crisis pregnancies. We offer alternatives to abortion, promote sexual purity, and provide post-abortion counseling.

And they do all this without a dime from the government. Imagine that.

My goal is to collect $500 in pledges for this walk. I'm planning on matching any contributions that others pledge, so if you pledge $10, the center will get $20. If you want receipts for tax purposes, those can be provided as well. It's a 2-mile walk, rain or shine. And in fact, just for you internet folks, I'll take requests for the walk. If you'd like to sponsor me to walk 0.5 mile with a banana in my ear, I'll do that (and provide photographic evidence, if needed). So give it a thought, I promise you, every dollar you donate will be put to very good use.

And if you don't want to do this over the internet or what not, do consider helping out the pregnancy center near you.

3 I would offer to ride a llama, but it does say "WALK-a-thon," so I think that would be cheating.

4 Hmmm... you could do the walk dressed in a llama suit. Granted, it'll probably take two of ya.

5 I'm not sure if I can find someone else willing to go down that road...

6 If you did all four legs, you'd only have to walk half as far, right?

7 But I'd have to walk it twice, wouldn't I?
