This post is to generate awareness for a fundraising effort being undertaken by an agent in my office.
Ryan Christensen
is a young real estate agent and avid mountain climber. He had committed to climb two of the world’s tallest mountains this summer in The Climb to Fight Breast Cancer 2008. Raising money for breast cancer research at the Fred Hutchinson Clinic in Seattle.
However, like most mountain climbs this story has a twist and this is where you can help. Ryan had his tonsils removed in March. Most of the time tonsils are a simple procedure and you are back living life within a few days. Ryan was not so lucky. There have been three surgeries and multiple visits to the emergency room along with seventeen units of blood. Just now Ryan is starting to feel better. This all happened without insurance. Ryan does not complain about anything and is one of the most positive and upbeat people I have been lucky to be associated with in real estate. With over $100,000 in medical bills to deal with Ryan is struggling to make the time to do the necessary fundraising to generate the needed funds required that he has committed to for the climbs. This is why I am taking advantage of the power of Active Rain on his behalf.
He will not be able to climb Mt. Elbrus as he will not be healthy enough in time. He will be able to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. Your contributions to Ryan’s climb can make a huge difference to both Breast Cancer research and to Ryan. Please visit Ryan’s site WhatsYourReason.Org to learn more and to contribute.
Your contributions to Breast Cancer research are tax deductable. If you choose to donate to support Ryan and the climb directly the donations are not tax deductible but will be a huge relief to a young man who has a huge heart and wants to make a difference for others. Ryan had set a goal to raise $30,000 for Breast Cancer Research. He needs $8,500 for the basic expenses of the climb. He has corporate sponsorships that are helping with supplies and equipment.
I will close with this. What’s Your Reason?

The Proctor District in Tacoma has a farmers market that starts Saturday April 26th.
Hours of operation 9am to 2pm each Saturday from April 26th to November 1st.
The Proctor Farmers Market website can be found by following this link.
The Proctor Farmers Market is full of local growers, artists, and vendors who provide a wide range of local foods and merchandise.
There is entertainment for both adults and the kids. Dogs are often walking around and there is always something exciting happening.
We are lucky in the Tacoma are to have so many farmers markets to attend. Now that spring is here (or at least it is supposed to be here) we can start getting out to our local markets and enjoying the fruits (and veggies) or our area.
I will be continuing to post articles about the other neighborhood farmers markets during the upcoming weeks.
Getting out and meeting your neighbors at the market is a great way to connect to our wonderful community and to help support our local merchants.

“I have known Scott for a number of years beginning with our working together @ Starbucks Coffee Company. Our roles began in the same group and then diversified into different roles within IT but we have kept in close contact. Scott has always been enthusiastic in all of his endeavors and works very hard with a strong customer service ethic. His attention to detail and willingness to always learn something new and take his personal knowledge to the next step allows him to bring a high level of skill to any interaction. Knowing Scott as I do, I would not ever hesitate to recommend him as your next realtor." J.Hunger Edmonds, WA
“I've known Scott for many years, and have had countless opportunities to witness his qualities. As a Realtor, he's someone you can trust to recommend what best meets your needs, as well as what you want. He doesn't work from the standpoint of what makes money for him, but rather an honest care for what will make the happiest customer. I can honestly recommend him as an agent you can trust to give you accurate information and creative ideas.” T Phillips, Marysville, WA
