Pumpkin Run!!!


For all those times you've wanted to help and there wasn't anything to do, for all those times you asked what we needed and we didn't need anything.....your time has come!!!
                                       
We are so excited to announce that the LeBonheur Pediflight team has adopted our girls as their "mascot" for the Pumpkin Run 5k this year!  Pediflight took both girls on their first trip down Poplar Ave.  from Methodist Germantown to Le Bonheur but they also transport precious children in need of medical care everyday. This 5k is one of LeBonheur's major fundraisers for the year and makes it possible for them to serve so many families in such desperate need.  For the past 8 months we have been that family.  We are so grateful that a place like LeBonheur exists with it's excellent medical care and has allowed our precious girls to survive what was unsurvivable not too long ago!

Please help us help others by joining the "Pediflight Loves Chu" team and either participate in the run, register as a "ghost runner" and just get the shirt, or consider donating to the team's goal.   Any extra donations will be used by Jonathan and me to give back to LeBonheur.  We have a few ideas we're really excited about providing for families to make life in the hospital just a little easier.

All donations and sign ups can be completed online at www.pumpkinrun.org but make sure to select "Pediflight Loves Chu" as your team when you register.  If you go to the team page you can donate directly to the team's goal.

Now for the really important stuff. T-shirts. There is an official Pumpkin Run Shirt that you will get when you register for the race, but there is also a really cute "Pediflight Loves Chu" shirt that you can get by sending our fearless leader Kimmie an email at kimberlymarston921@gmail.com.  The price is not set in stone yet but will be around $10 and we'll need to order the shirts soon so that they will be here in time for the race!

We are so excited for this chance to give back and we hope that you'll get excited with us!

  1. So I have started running and am doing the "couch to 5k" program in hopes of maybe someday running a race. Well, the progress has been sloooooooooow. I think I may have just found my motivation to amp up my training and be ready to run a 5k on October 8 cause I love the Chu's too!!!!!!!!!
