5k for a good cause!

For all you runners out there! My sister-in-law is helping put on a 5k to benefit this sweet family. Here is the info. for anyone who would be interested. If you'd like to know more about there story or would like to donate to the cause you can check it out at http://beanbenefit.blogspot.com/

One of our peers is a BYU student trying to finish his undergraduate degree; his name is Josh Bean. Recently, his wife passed away due to a tragic occurrence with cancer. Josh put his education on hold to care for her and his two children. Josh needs our help because he is working hard to finish his degree, care for his two children, and pay off medical and tuition bills.

We are trying to raise money for Josh because he is SO DESERVING of our help. We are raising this money through a 5k benefit run located at The Shops at Riverwoods in memory of his wife, Janeece. This run will occur onSaturday, February 26, 2011, beginning at 8:00am. We are titling this event “Bean Benefit 5k”.
