Live Uncommon - Never Giving Up, Always Giving Back.

Hello!

Jeff Deppe here! I am excited to be sending you this letter as a way of getting the word out to you about my recent acceptance into the LIVE UNCOMMON Race Team! As you probably already know about me – I am always running -- as a way to exercise, as well as relax, de-stress, make new friends, and now more than ever – to Make a Difference in the world around us!

You see, being a part of the LIVE UNCOMMON Race Team is NOT just about running. More than anything else, it is about doing what a person does (in my case, running races), funneling my energies into making a difference, for what LIVE UNCOMMON calls “the Greater Good”.

To run for the LU Race Team, I must declare a Charity of My Choice – some cause in which I personally believe and connect. My LIVE UNCOMMON Race Team efforts will go to raise awareness and funds for the Charity of Choice that I declare. I have chosen two charities for which my efforts, with the help of YOUR generosity, will benefit. They are:

CHRISTIAN CARE Rescue Mission and Domestic Violence Shelter, and SCHOOL HEALTH LINK. Both are local charities based in Rock Island, Illinois and donations made through my effort will remain local, benefitting local people in need. I believe whole-heartedly in both of these charities and know firsthand that they make a difference in our community. I feel very blessed to be able to help them help others, in this capacity.

A portion of my LU Race Team efforts will also go to the LU Scholarship Fund, which in 2012 awarded $15,000 in local scholarships to college-bound youth. LIVE UNCOMMON is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization of which I am proud to support.

Thank you for reading this, and for helping me help the world! Any donation is greatly appreciated and truly DOES make a difference for someONE. Thank YOU!

Jeff
