George Martin is a great guys and a former NY GIANT.

I don¹t usually ask others to consider giving money to any cause but I heard
George on the radio. He is 50 at least and is committed to walking across
the country because he believes in this.
Moved me. Unbelievable movie starts it off.

Our mission is to help provide health care for the surviving rescue and
recovery workers who rushed to Ground Zero after the 9-11 attacks, by
raising a minimum of $10 Million.
One day an idea came to George Martin, executive, humanitarian and former
New York Football Giants star.  Many of those who had rushed to aid in the
aftermath of 9-11 are sick with respiratory and other diseases that can
cause permanent disability.  Some have even lost their jobs and had no
insurance.  Mr. Martin wanted to help.
Mr. Martin will walk from the George Washington Bridge to the Golden Gate
Bridge, stopping along the way to promote various events in support of the
mission.
The goal is to raise a minimum of $10 million for medical care for Ground
Zero workers.  Mr. Martin is looking to raise funds and, in addition,
whatever amount he raises, participating Hospitals and Medical Care partners
will provide a dollar-for-dollar match in medical services essentially
doubling the amount of help care available for The Heroes of Ground Zero.
