100forChristy.org - Jay Donosky

I wanted to make everyone aware of a fundraising effort initiated by a very determined individual. Several months ago, one of Christy's longtime clients, Jody Donosky, approached me about a fundraising idea her son had conceived. Flagstaff, Arizona resident, Jay Donosky, had decided that 2010 would be a year in which he would dedicate himself to ultra marathon training. About the time he began his training in earnest, Jay heard of Christy's accident in Evansville and was moved to somehow make a difference through his running.

Jay is training for the Leadville Trail 100 Mile Run which is a 50-mile out and back running race in the midst of the Colorado Rockies. He will run the race on August 21st one day after Christy's birthday. With the help of a very talented cousin, Jay unveiled the following website http://100forchristy.org/.


Jay hopes individuals, groups, and businesses will offer a pledge for every mile he completes in the Leadville 100. The money raised will go to support Christy in her rehabilitation. Please take a moment to visit http://100forchristy.org/ and learn more about Jay's efforts, the Leadville 100, and how you can make a pledge.

Due to limited seating and an overwhelming response, the Bonefish Grill will no longer be taking reservations for this Sundays benefit in Christy's honor.
