I have to break from the usual Dispatches From the Field for a special edition.
I am training for what will probably be the most challenging day in my 40+ years of life for many reasons, but one of the most important is the chance to raise awareness for those who are not getting enough to eat. I am focused on my local organization, Three Square, and am looking for your help. You can find a link to their website on the right side of my blog that goes directly to their website where you can either volunteer or make a donation. I do not handle your money in any way. $1 supplies three meals to people in need.

| Such an amazing group of people. |

| Thank you to the amazing staff at RM Seafood for including me in their morning of volunteer work at Three Square. |
How much was your Starbucks this morning? Donate 1 Starbucks visit to Three Square for my quest to complete an Ironman this year. I would consider it a personal favor.
My wife Melissa gets staff from RM Seafood Restaurant together to donate a couple hours at the Three Square Facility. She always asks me if I want to join in. Today we all went over for the morning. What did it cost me personally? A couple hours and moving one appointment. I got so much more back in return.
A couple of facts from my community:
1 in 8 households in Nevada struggle with hunger.
50% of the children in our schools are at risk for hunger.
No child should go to bed hungry tonight.
Interested in helping someone in your area? I would appreciate it if you could send me a link to your local organization that is helping to feed the community. I will build a page with those links for others.
God bless you and your family in your life and your personal journey.
