Thank you for supporting our efforts to fundraise to assist The Semper Fi Fund's mission to serve those who preserve our freedom. We hope, with your help, that we can bring increasing awareness and financial support for these brave men and women.

Ladies and gentlemen, we (Robert Hillery and Mosi Smith) are doing a long-term fundraising campaign for the Semper Fi Fund, called "1 in 10". We respectfully request two simple things:

First, that you pledge to donate $1 for every race we complete in 2010. That's it, just $1!

Our goal is $1 million! Very ambitious we know, but through the power of networking and mass communication we hope to achieve our goal for our Wounded Warriors through the Semper Fi Fund. The Fund (www.semperfifund.org) is a non profit organization that helps America's true heroes recovering from catastrophic injury. 100% of the donations go to help injured Marines.

Team Semper Fi (TSF) was established in 2006 by the Semper Fi Fund as an extension of the assistance that the Fund provides to those who are injured in combat and training. The idea for Team Semper Fi was inspired by those wounded Marines and Sailors who refused to let their challenges prevent them from competing in athletic events, and whose drive and determination was inspiratonal to us all.

Thank you for supporting this great cause!

Semper Fidelis,
Captain Hillery & Captain Smith
