Thanks to the Truman family, JUST TRYAN IT was nominated for Good Day DC’s Pay It Forward segment on Fox 5. Much to our surprise, this interview ended with JUST TRYANIT being awarded $2,000 from Easterns Automotive Group. This gift was to match the $2,000 raised by Dominic Truman and his family during a big pizza and slushie party that they held at their house.
“Dominic loves pizza and slushies. We wanted to make fundraising fun, we hung posters around the neighborhood, posted on local listservs and made sure to invite everyone knew. Everyone had a great time and you will be surprised how generous people are when you provide an opportunity to participate in a worthy cause.” – Jaime, mom of Dominic.
The Truman Family has been involved with JTI since its inception. Dominic (6) is following in the footsteps of his big brother Zack (19) who went to pre-school with Ryan Darby and raced from the age of 6 to 14. This is Dominic’s first race and he is looking forward to the swim. He practiced swimming all summer and thinks he will be fast in the pool. Dominic is happy to help kids who are fighting cancer. He said, “I don’t like when I am sick. I hope this helps to make kids feel better soon.”
We are so grateful to Dominic and his family for supporting JUST TRYAN IT. You can join in the fun too. Click the buttons below to register, volunteer or donate.
