Dear friends,

I’m running the 2025 TCS New York City Marathon to support a cause that’s truly close to my heart: Shoe4Africa.

This will be my second year fundraising with the team, and thanks to your incredible support last year, I exceeded my goal. I’m proud to be part of this mission again—because I’ve seen how real the impact is.

Shoe4Africa is transforming lives in East Africa by bringing healthcare, education, and hope to children who need it most. Since 2015, they’ve treated over 1.3 million kids at Kenya’s only public children’s hospital. Now, they’re building sub-Saharan Africa’s first public children’s cancer hospital, addressing one of the most urgent and heartbreaking gaps in global healthcare.

This isn’t just another race. It’s a chance to help children survive cancer, go to school, and grow up with dignity and opportunity.

Every dollar you give goes 100% to the projects. No overhead, no waste—just real help, on the ground, where it matters.

If you’ve supported me before, thank you. If you’re new to this cause, I’d be thrilled to have you join this journey. Let’s make every mile count—and together, create something powerful, lasting, and full of hope.

Let’s do this!

With deep gratitude,

Alberto
