Help Adam raise money

Hello friends,

For this year's Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon 10 Mile run, I am thrilled to partner with a local organization, Reach Out and Read Minnesota, to raise funds to support early literacy and early childhood development in Minnesota. The Reach Out and Read program works with pediatric healthcare providers at nearly 300 clinics statewide to give books and early developmental guidance to young children and their families at their routine well-child visits. The results this program achieves are amazing: participating families are 2 and a half times more likely to read at home, children's language scores increase, and attendance rates at check-ups improve!

Literacy and early learning matter to me because of its significant impacts on the growth and development of children, including my own! Making an investment in young children's learning now will have huge effects on the rest of their lives. I invited you to join me in supporting Reach Out and Read Minnesota and help bring the brain-building, family-bonding power of books to young kids across Minnesota.

Let's make it a race for the books!
