Hello fellow MM.net members. I have been active on this board since 2005 and have never solicited funds from you guys. Quite the opposite actually, but that is not what is important. I would like to ask for your help now.
I have committed to run a 5k this year at the Baltimore Running Festival on October 18th in support of the Helping Up Mission.
https://helpingupmission.org/
This is the first year on Team Hum for me but I have been involved with the mission for a number of years. I am a recovering alcoholic so this incredible institution is very dear to me and I have seen the miraculous transformations of the men who have completed the program.
The Mission is a Christ-based twelve month recovery center on Baltimore Street serving alcoholics and addicts in Baltimore City and the surrounding counties. The Mission houses up to 500 men at one time and offers them a chance to reclaim their lives. Services available to the men include food, clothes, lodging, spiritual growth and 12 step recovery classes, dental attention, psychiatric counseling, legal assistance, and job placement. Many men have walked in the doors of the Mission as “beaten” men but with a strong will to get better and have completed the program and gone on to lead productive lives. It is one of those places where you see God’s hand at work in people’s lives.
To that end I hope you will join me in supporting the Mission by making a tax-deductible donation to the Helping Up Mission in support of my 5k run. Donations can be made by clicking on the link below to our fundraising page on Razoo.com:

Attention: Bob Johnson Team HUM
Thank you and God bless.
