Help Chris Wingert Help The XanGo Goodness Foundation: Donate Today
tags: XanGo Soccer
Over the past three weeks, the XanGo Goodness Foundation has teamed up with Real Salt Lake’s Chris Wingert to raise thousands of dollars to support our ongoing work with the Global Alliance and University of Utah medical school to provide sustainable development and improve long-term, healthy living in Barekuma, Ghana.
The Athletes for Hope Who Gives? Racing for a Cause campaign features 55 of the world’s best athletes in a competition to give the most to their charity of choice. Thanks to your early efforts, our very own Chris Wingert has steadily stayed in the Top 5 out of the participating athletes, including Jeff Gordon, Lance Armstrong, Steve Nash and Cal Ripken Jr.
Today, he needs your help in his final sprint to the top. On January 5, we are teaming with Chris for a one-day mini-race with his fellow athletes to see who can raise the most money on this single day. There is also a bonus prize for the cause that receives contributions from the highest number of donors, so every amount counts.
All money raised will go to the XanGo Goodness Foundation to provide books, teachers and school supplies to educate children in rural Ghana. As an added incentive for your donation, Chris has pledged to send an autographed photo of him playing in the 2009 MLS Cup to anyone who donates $20 or more.
No donation is too small. Your $20 can help us provide school supplies and books for four Ghanaian children for an entire year. Just click HERE to see our project page and make your secure donation. Let’s make January 5 a day to remember—one in which XanGo Nation puts its giving on display for the world to observe.
Remember, if Chris and the XanGo Goodness Foundation finish in first place at the end of the competition, then we will receive an additional $10,000 from Athletes for Hope. Thank you for your support!
