I'm running the NYC Marathon (Nov 1) for the first time! I've spent the past couple of years watching from the sidelines, and this year I decided to run it.
I'm running in support of the New York Junior League, an organization that connected me to some of the most meaningful volunteer work I've been a part of since moving to the city five years ago.
Through the NYJL, I've had the privilege of supporting runaway and homeless youth with Rising Ground's transitional living programs and young women through Global Kids' after-school programs.
If you can donate, I'd really appreciate it. Every dollar goes directly toward the programs and partnerships that support NYC based nonprofits doing really incredible work.
Hope to see you on the course! šāāļø
