Tom Olin - National Fun Runner for ADAPT - 2016

Hello Friends and Family and Community,

Hello to those of you who I have yet to meet as the Road to Freedom Bus Tour continues and also a very big thank you for those who gave their support freely along the way these last few years, those who gave me nourishment of food, friendship and fun which I can never forget.This year I have been chosen as ADAPT’s official fun runner. Please help to support ADAPT by pledging a generous donation for the ADAPT Fun Run, April 10, 2016 in Washington,DC. 

I will scoot my way around Upper Senate Park, Constitution and 1st Street until I complete 20 or so laps.

You can donate an amount per lap or a whopping big lump sum donation or whatever you can afford.

Your open hearted donations support national ADAPT, a community I have been photographing for over 30 years. They are the spirit and soul of our disability rights movement; “Our blood and our bones,” said one national leader.

Your donation also helps the Road to Freedom Bus Tour. The “ ADA Bus” will continue on this year and we will join communities at events focusing on issues of ‘disability vote’, ‘community integration' and ‘emergency preparedness’. The “Bus” will always continue to celebrate the disability rights, justice and economic justice movements for all in our community.

ADAPT deserves and needs your support. May this request finds you in the spirit of humanity where we touch our common heart.

Love,

Tom Olin
