My sister is Awesome, with a capital A!

Those of you who already know Kirsten probably agree, she's pretty awesome, right? For those of you who don't know her, well, let me give you just one little reason that will prove my point.

In follow up to my last post [click here to go back and read it, I'll wait... ♫ final Jeopardy music sweetly plays in the background ♫]

Okay, good, you're done? We're all on the same page now? Perfect.

Anyway, to follow up on that last post, Kirsten decided to make one last push in the fundraising department for Right to Play as she heads into her taper for the Victoria Marathon. (Yes, she is running the marathon after having fairly recently completed TransRockies... she's awesome. And crazy).

This last little push for Right to Play comes with one SUPER AWESOME GIGANTIC TWIST though.

You ready for this?

Any money she collects from now until the marathon (or until she reaches her newly upped goal of $1500), she will personally match, and pay it forward to Audrey Lou.

In my opinion, this is a win-win-win all over the place, as this means every dollar donated to her Quest for Kids page is actually matched 4x! 

3x by Right to Play for the children of Benin and 1x by Kirsten for Audrey.

In Kirsten's words: "It will make suffering through a marathon that much easier, because really compared to what these kids deal with, running is easy."

Told you she was awesome.

Anyway, you can check out Kirsten's newly updated Quest for Kids page here.

Once again, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to everyone for the continued support.
It sure does make my heart smile.
