Thank
You to a CHAMPION
Martin
Franklin, CEO of Jarden
Corporation and OneFamily board member, recently participated
for the second time in the Iron Man Triathlon in Hawaii. He raised
half a million dollars in sponsorships.His wife Julie wrote to
us:
Dear
OneFamily:
Thank you for thinking of us, for your good
wishes and the beautiful flowers. Martin finished in under 11
hours, beating his previous time by 50 minutes. He was totally
motivated and pushed quite hard. The boys ran with him and encouraged
him along the way. It is a testament to his iron will and dedication
to a beautiful cause. Martin was given a $4000 challenge to do
a cartwheel at the end of the race. After nearly 11 hours of racing
I thought it was an unrealistic option, but right at the finish
he raised his hands, did the cartwheel and said, "This is
for you, OneFamily." We are thrilled to be part of OneFamily.
It looks like he will have raised half a million dollars again!!!
We hope to bring the kids again in the spring and do something
special. It was such a meaningful visit the last time and we know
it will be again!! Thank you for giving us the opportunity to
make a difference in peoples live's.
Love
and best wishes,
Julie Franklin & family
