Hi! My name is CeCe Thomas, and I am more than honored to be able to run for this foundation.

It will be 9 years this coming April that my grandpa passed away unexpectedly. About 6 months before his passing we took a family trip to Tanzania & spent time with the kids at a school called Tumaini. It was so impactful & wonderful to play with and meet the lovely children who were able to attend there.

After his passing, we raised money to build the school a science lab in his memory for the children we had met there that inspired & sparked again our excitement of classroom learning. You can see images of what we were able to build here: https://tanzaniaeducationcorp.org/news/2020/6/26/july-2020-labs-at-tumaini-senior-secondary )

To be able to have an impact on children across the world in this way is something my family holds close to our hearts, & something I will always feel honored to support.

Thank you for supporting me, & I am beyond looking forward to my race in March.
