We have reached my minimum fundraising goal, but we can still use help from more people like these Heroes. Please considering joining them by donating any amount to http://pmc.org/DH0159.
Jennifer Leggio is yet another one of the fascinating people I have met through my work- both professional and personal- in online social networking. I know her best from her ZDNet “Social Business” blog, and she also has started a “Quick ‘n’ Dirty” Podcast with fellow sponsor and friend Aaron Strout. Also, find Jennifer on Twitter; she is @MediaPhyter and worth a follow. I say these nice things about her despite the fact that she is a San Jose Sharks fan.
One other thing: Jennifer is also an athletic fundraiser, running in the Nike Women’s Marathon to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Please give her page a look as well.
More from Jennifer:
– Why did you sponsor me in the Pan-Mass Challenge?
One, it’s a wonderful cause. It raises money yet also creates awareness, as it did with me. I didn’t know before the Pan-Mass Challenge existed and I’m glad now that I do. Two, you’ve always been so supportive and positive, and I wanted to return the favor.
– How did you first hear about the Pan-Mass Challenge?
It was actually from you. :-)
– Name one interesting fact or story that makes you unique and interesting
I was in the circus when I was a little kid. I went to Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey Circus with my family and they were looking for kids to ride in one of the clown cars. My mom volunteered me. So I rode around, terrified, and got a paper sheriff’s badge for my trouble. How many kids can say that? I guess only the ones whose family drags them to the circus.
