AND
see note below from Mike Branum regarding how we can support Ironman by supporting his effort!
I am participating in the Ironman 70.3 on May 6. I am participating as an Ironman Foundation "athlete" (and I use that term VERY loosely when applied to me). I am asking for donations to support my swim / bike / run. You are 100% GUARANTEED that part of your donation will come back to St. George Sunrise Rotary. Our club has received a grant from the IMF every time Ironman has come to town. Giving back to an organization that gives to our club and other local charities is the reason I decided to participate as an IMF athlete.
If you are not familiar with what IMF does, here is a link to the IMF YouTube page with videos explaining the mission of the IMF.
Thank you to those who have already donated! Every donation gets me one step closer to my goal and supports worthy non-profits in St. George and around the world.
