Join The Walk-For-Crash Fundraising Event

OCTOBER 7, 2007

Lack of widespread publicity, a weak Pledge Drive effort, and a previously (unknown) scheduled, simultaneous Morehead, KY charity event (a once-yearly Heart Walk) resulted in a regrettably small turnout on yet a beautiful October Saturday morning. Those participants involved did complete the 1.7 mile course in approximately forty-minutes, and shared in their sentiments to assist our good friend David "Crash" Mullins. The Foundation wishes to issue a special thanks to Mr. Shane Ison. Shane is current enrolled as a first-year student at Morehead State University, and made a special fundraising effort throughout his congregation at the Sharkey Freewill Baptist Church. Thank you again Shane, and special appreciation for the ongoing and consistent support of all the church members. This event raised $135.

It is the Foundation's position that, "every little bit helps."
