The following letter is from Run Across America with Jazzy

To whom it may concern:

Hi my name is Jasmine Jordan, I'm a 16 year old Sophomore, soon to be Junior at Ashby School in Ashby, MN. For the past two years I have been training hard running as my sights were set on getting to and to compete in the 2012 summer Olympics, however all that has had to be put on hold. My parents own and run a small trucking company, as well as a pilot car company for oversize loads. We had a driver by the name of Sheila Grothe whom worked for the pilot car side of the business, ever since my Mom expanded and needed to hire more people, Sheila took sick a year and a half ago and we lost her to Cancer on April 17 2009.

On that day I made a decision, that I will do something to change the system so people who don't have medical coverage that will pay for treatments like Sheila needed will have options. Growing up in a trucking family environment I do understand the need for truckers and all involved in the trucking business to stay healthy, as thats the way they make a living and make it possible for many others to make a living as well "AMERICA MOVES BY TRUCK".

  I learned of the St. Christopher's fund and the work they do and felt I could make a difference starting there.  Sept 1 2009 I will run from Los Angeles, CA. To New York City, NY. My goal is to raise attention to the growing problem with people who have medical issues who are under insured and not insured.   We have all seen how generous our country has been in the past, I believe even in economic hard times we still make a big difference. Will you help me make the difference that is so needed, together we will change the future for the better.

  Thank you in advance for your support.

Jasmine J Jordan
