Dear Friends and Family,
 

Thank you for your commitment in supporting me as I once again run across home plate at AT&T Park for the 6th year in a row!

Because of your support, I have had the privilege of having a truly memorable experience each year that I participate in this event. The feeling of finishing the race and running across home plate is so nostalgic and worthwhile. The 5K was always such a  fun experience (lots of eccentric runners, cheerful support staff, and a very loud welcome across the finish line). For the past 3 years, I have enjoyed the challenge of running the half marathon distance for this event. The course was very scenic and made me appreciate the beauty of the City by the Bay. The high-five and encouragement from Brian Wilson in 2011 at Mile 5 wasn't too bad either. Although it was a daunting experience, once I entered AT&T Park and heard the welcoming crowd, I couldn't help but sprint to the finish with a boost of energy that I didn't even know I had. For year # 6, I am going to try the 10K course which a lot of people have been raving about!

This year, I am once again asking for your support in helping me to meet my fundraising goal. All proceeds from your generous sponsorship will be directly donated to Project Open Hand. In previous years, this event has raised thousands of dollars from generous sponsors like you. I am confident that I have reached out to the right people. Last year, with your generous support, our team made it as an ALL STAR VIP TEAM and we would love to make it in that roster again! 
Please consider donating $10 ($1 per km that I intend to run), but any amount would greatly help.

By the way, our team is also recruiting people who are interested in walking or running across home plate at AT&T Park. Feel free to visit our team (Team Winner Winner Chicken Dinner) page if you are interested in joining in the 5K, 10K, or half marathon. Anyone and everyone is gladly welcome! Also, please feel free to spread the word to your friends and family who may be interested in donating or running/walking with us.

Whether you decide to support Project Open Hand by donating or joining our team, I want to say a big THANK YOU for your generous support of this worthy cause!

Sincerely,
Grace Cruz
