On Saturday, September 20th, my family and I will be joining a huge crowd of folks for the "4Us" event. Ride4Us is a 5, 25, 42, or 62 mile bike trip through Tacoma and Gig Harbor, for those of you who enjoy bicycling. Run4Us is a 5k or 10k race through Pt Defiance along Commencement Bay for those of you who are into running. For the rest of us, there is Walk4Us, a 5k walk through Pt Defiance. Everybody will enjoy Fun4Us, with live music, inflatable big toys, diaper dash and toddler trot, food, go-carts, etc! Fun, basically.
4Us benefits CareNet Pregnancy & Family Services. Their studies have found that over 90% of women who are able to see an ultrasound of their baby choose life over abortion. That number staggers me. Problem is, many women can't afford ultrasounds. Enter CareNet. They'll provide them for these women. Problem is, CareNet can't afford enough ultrasound machines (they're over $25k each!). Enter 4Us. The 4Us event is a fund raiser to help purchase ultrasound machines for CareNet so women have the opportunity to choose life. Please understand, this isn't a political statement I'm making nor is there any room for political debates on this post.
If you'd like to join us for the actual event next Saturday morning, or if you'd like to donate to this cause, please visit my Donor website and look through the 4Us website while you're there! If you'd like to donate, but you're not comfortable donating online, please give me a call or send me an email and we can work out an alternate method.
