Fundraising for The Calpine Foundation
For the fifth year in a row, Calpine will be sponsoring a running team for the Houston Marathon taking place on January 15th, 2017! Calpine has raised over $200,000 for charity since 2013 and will continue to raise more this year through the generosity of our donors and dedication of the participants!
This year Calpine is fundraising for four different charities, from which I have chosen to raise money for the Alzheimer's Association, the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer's care, support and research. Their mission statement is "to eliminate Alzheimer's disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health."
This year I will be running the full marathon and am excited to see how much money that I can raise personally, and that we as a company can raise together to go towards this great charity.
By supporting me with your contribution towards the Alzheimer's Association, you are helping support a great cause by improving the Alzheimer's Association's ability to research cures and provide care to more people who are affected by dementia.
Thank you for your consideration in supporting me and contributing to this great cause.
Team Calpine is running the 2017 Houston Marathon and Half
