Simeon Says

I would like to think that I do a lot to help people in our community. I work with local user groups, present at conferences and generally put myself out there to aide people where I can. I don’t do this for any selfish reasons, I do it because I feel I should. I don’t ask for anything in return for my efforts other than for others to turn the favor and give in whatever ways they can. I don’t have a donation button on my blog to make money. I don’t have an amazon wish list for gifts. I don’t think what I do deserves those things.

But I have decided there is a way that if you wish, if you feel like giving back, you can help me. I have decided to participate in the “Race for the Cure” in Portland this year. I will be running in the race, but more importantly I am fund raising for the cause.

I know in these times of economic stress, its hard to think about giving money away for anything. But I would like you to consider giving for this fantastic effort.

Should you feel so inclined, Please visit my race page and click the “Donate on behalf of Simeon” button.

Thanks for your time and consideration. I know this is not usually the kind of thing I talk about on my blog, and it was hard to write and ask for your help. But I think this is important and I hope you do too.
