A MESSAGE FROM Barth's fundraising page
@Bcause_running for Mental Health
Thank you for joining me on my fundraising journey.
Running the New York City Marathon with the Minding Your Mind team is a dream come true for me. But more importantly, it is an opportunity to run for a cause that is deeply personal.
Minding Your Mind works to educate students from kindergarten through college, as well as the adults in their communities, about the importance of mental health. Through education and awareness, their goal is to shift the conversation from crisis response to prevention, early intervention, and help-seeking.
This mission resonates with me on a very personal level. Mental health has been an important part of my family’s story and has shaped my life in ways that will stay with me forever.
By running this marathon, I hope to help break the stigma surrounding mental health, encourage more open conversations, and remind people that asking for help is a sign of strength.
My goal is to raise at least $5,000 USD to support Minding Your Mind and their important work bringing mental health education and awareness to communities.
Every donation, no matter the amount, brings me one step closer to the finish line—and helps bring us one step closer to a world where mental health is treated with the same importance as physical health.
Thank you for believing in this mission, supporting my journey, and running alongside me, one mile at a time.
