Dear friends and family,

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.

Your donation will help African kids born into poverty who have contracted cancer. 9/10 are dying in sub Saharan Africa when diagnosed with cancers and a major reason why is because there is not a single children’s cancer hospital in the entire region of sub Saharan Africa (a population of over one billion). In America, 90% of those kids are healed in childrens’ cancer centers. Shoe4Africa is going to bring the first children’s cancer hospital, a 152 bed public facility, to this region.

This will be my 2nd year of running in support of Shoe4Africa’s mission. I’m thrilled to be a part of this team & extremely motivated to give this race my all. We’re going for a PR this year, weather permitting!

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