Weekly Roundup: Kudos Edition
Today over at Step by Step Fundraising I wrote about several organizations and individuals who are doing great things for their favorite causes. Since there’s several kudos for people involved with charity athletic events, I thought I’d continue the good vibes here also:

Emily Schreiber is featured in the July/August issue of Advancing Philanthropy magazine. Emily, now 14 years old, was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF) at the age of nine. She raises fund to find a cure for by swimming laps and now serves as chair of her own foundation, Laps for CF.
Amy Katz, a new Charity Mile member, is training for her 24th marathon! 10 of those marathons were on behalf The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society as part of the Team in Training program. Over all, she’s raised over $15,000 in about four years.
