Group was started here in Nashville as a response to the Newtown tragedy, they've quickly mobilized with fundraising for Boston as well. We have the Country Music Marathon here on the 27th & many will be running with our "angels" to support the Boston victims.
You can run with an angel anywhere, you can donate online.
The organizers stay directly involved to ensure that the funds go to the families without any questions or concerns from outside entities. A check was hand-delivered to Newtown after the tragedy. Robbie was in Newtown last weekend to help organize and support another event with them to help school kids & everyone continue to get active & continue to remember & heal.
I'm not directly involved with it but a
huge supporter. Too often our fundraising efforts don't go directly to the victims or don't really help the greater good recover & rebuild.
We (runners, athletes, humans) are family. We are Nashville. We are Everywhere & Everyone. We are running for others.
