Look How Far We've Come!

Look How Far We've Come!

As I sit here, I am amazed at how far we've come.  This whole idea began with a conversation over dinner between 4 CZC volunteers in June (see picture below from that night).  Not sure how, but somehow the 4 of us decided it would be fun to run the Disney Marathon/Half Marathon.  Then we decided it would be fun to  run and raise money for Comfort Zone. And then we decided it would be fun to recruit other CZC volunteers, families and supporters to run/walk and raise money with us.  We brought two other incredible CZC volunteers on board to be a part of the Planning Committee, and look how far we've come.

Now we have 28 confirmed participants who have pledged to raise $29,750.

Unbelievable!!! We have CZC volunteers, camper parents and people who have only heard about CZC but whose hearts have been touched by the lives that are transformed at CZC.  They have all committed to travel to Orlando, Florida and to run/walk a Half Marathon or Full Marathon to raise money for Comfort Zone. 

That, my friends, is a testament to the magic of Comfort Zone Camp.  CZC isn’t just another charity.  Grief eventually touches us all.  If we are fortunate enough not to have lost someone close to us ourselves, we all know someone who has tragically lost a parent, sibling, child or friend.  CZC is a game-changer in the world of those living with grief and loss.  We are doing this for all of the people and especially for all of the children, who have suffered unimaginable losses and who desperately need the CZC community to help them understand that they are not alone.
