St. Petersburg, FL or Bust!!

Are you looking for an excuse to travel to Florida in the dead of winter?  How about supporting TSF?

The Turner Syndrome Foundation is an official charity of the Rock ‘n’ Roll St. Pete ½ Marathon Series in St. Petersburg , Florida on February 12, 2012.

By joining Team TSF with a fundraising commitment for the marathon, you will be helping raise awareness and support for Turner Syndrome, a little known chromosomal condition affecting 1 in 2000 girls, a condition with which early diagnosis and treatment are extremely vital. 

“As a female, I never heard of Turner Syndrome until my niece was diagnosed with this and soon thereafter, her mom became the director and founding president of TSF in Holmdel New Jersey,” said Team TSF leader, Lucretia Fasciano, who decided to become TEAM TSF leader to help the organization with its hard work of spreading awareness about Turner Syndrome.  I have a demanding career in South Florida, but I know that my time and involvement will inherently help spread the word to help others”.

“Not only are we proud of all her work and the new awareness brought to many families, it’s an honor to join in and become a part of this growing organization,” said Lucretia.  The Foundation has facilitated numerous education and awareness programs many for nominal fees to best serve all constituents.  “It is important that we show support so that families know we care.”

Not a runner?  Walkers are always welcome.  You can also sign up to volunteer, sponsor a runner, or just come and cheer on the participants. 

“I will be participating in the St. Pete Marathon event walking the 1/2 marathon,” said Fasciano, and my family will be flying in to join our TEAM TSF.  It is a real family affair!”

 Lace up those sneakers and join Lucretia and Team TSF in sunny Florida for a day of fun and exercise; all while raising support for a good cause!

 “We hope to have a large group joining us for this new event location,” said Lucretia.
