Kelly Kollar (Friend of a Friend) will be running in this Years Marine Corp Marathon on October 28th in Washington DC. She plans to run the 26.2 miles for Fisher House and has set up a fundraising page in support of that effort. This is such a fantastic charity that I wanted to take a moment to share it with you, and to encourage all our Grok readers, advocates, fans, lurkers, even the Trolls and haters, to donate a few dollars to this cause…because it is all about the troops and their families.
Please take a moment to visit Kelly’s Donation page for Fisher House and give what you can. (scroll to the bottom of the page, pick an amount–or enter one–and follow the prompts.)
Because members of the military and their families are stationed worldwide and must often travel great distances for specialized medical care, Fisher House™ Foundation donates “comfort homes,” built on the grounds of major military and VA medical centers. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one at the most stressful time – during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury.

Thanks!
