shoe4africa - make the difference!

false - 25172

Hi everyone,

Thank you SO much for your support with any amount as I raise money for Shoe4Africa to run in the 2023 TCS New York City Marathon.

The funds raised by myself and other runners will go directly to the Shoe4Africa Children’s Hospital in Kenya, the only children’s cancer hospital in sub-Saharan Africa, serving a population of over one billion people.

Since its inception in 2015, the Shoe4Africa Children’s Hospital has been a beacon of hope for countless young patients. They have treated over one million individuals, extending a lifeline to those who need it the most. The hospital has distributed more than 5.6 million meals to hungry mouths, has been a source of employment for thousands of workers, and has helped over 17K students attend school. However, the need is still great, and with your generous support, we can help the hospital expand its reach, improve its facilities, and provide the vital care these children desperately need – all while transforming lives and spreading hope.

All donations are tax deductible under US law.

Thank you for caring to make the difference and for your support as I take on this challenge!

Emily
