Woman raising money to build museum for Vietnam Moving Wall in Michigan

I see this lady walk or run by my house all the time.

"- Jenny Kannianen has walked or run every single day since March 7 of this year, and for someone who doesn’t claim to be much of a runner, she’s already completed over 2,200 miles.

She has almost completed her goal of running 2,317 miles on a virtual run to San Jose, California to raise money to build a museum in Rockland to house one of the Vietnam Moving Walls."

There are a few organizations that have moving walls but this is considered to be the first.

I'd be thankful if other DUers could share the story and like the Facebook page. And maybe possibly even donate.
