Homeless Walkathon!

Dear Friends and Family,

On Saturday, November 20, I am walking in the Fannie Mae Help the Homeless Walkathon on the National Mall and I would like to ask you to support me with a tax-deductible donation.
Did you know that nearly 12,000 people in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area are homeless? That total includes families, children, and veterans. These hard economic times are making matters even worse—with 1.35 million children experiencing homelessness in the United States each year.
You and I can help. The Fannie Mae Help the Homeless Program is the largest effort in the nation to raise money and awareness about homelessness. More than a hundred nonprofits will benefit and 100 percent of the money we raise goes to these Help the Homeless beneficiaries. The Walkathon on the National Mall on the Saturday before Thanksgiving has become a Washington, D.C., tradition. I plan to be there and your donation can make the walk even more meaningful.
All you have to do is select the "Click Here to Sponsor Me" button. If you prefer, you can mail contributions in my name to:

CFNCR/Help the Homeless Program
1201 15th Street, NW
Suite 420
Washington, DC 20005

My personal fundraising goal is $100 (I have donated $25 already) but i'm hoping to surpass this goal. In addition, the staff member who raises the most amount of money gets a paid day off! Please help me and help the women served by Calvary Women's Services.

Thank you in advance!
Love,
Courtney
