Dallas Team's Napa to Sonoma Half Marathon Participants

Team Dallas is doing an awesome job preparing for the Napa to Sonoma Half-Marathon that will be held in July!

Recently, one of Team Dallas's participants held a Cinco de Mayo fundraiser. She was handing out beads in exchange for donations when a man approached her and asked if he could help her sell a few. He left with a handful of beads and returned a few minutes later with a handful of cash. She thanked him and he told her that he appreciated her effort in trying to raise funds for Crohn’s and Colitis research and thought CCFA was a great foundation to support.

Turns out, he was a former participant on the reality show, The Apprentice and used his celebrity to help sell the beads! Not only did he help us raise money but he also helped create awareness in a unique way.

Great job, Team Dallas!
