I'm running with Team World Vision to help provide life-changing clean water to children and communities in the developing world.

More than 800 children under age 5 die every day from diarrhea caused by contaminated water, poor sanitation, and improper hygiene. But we believe the global water and sanitation crisis can be solved within our lifetimes. ​

I’m running the 2025 BoA Chicago Marathon as a charity runner with Team Joints in Motion for the Arthritis Foundation. My fundraising goal is $1,500. I’m absolutely thrilled for this opportunity to run in one of my favorite cities!

 

I chose this charity because as I work in a Rheumatology practice, it raises awareness of the very many forms of arthritis and how they affect you physically, emotionally and financially. The money raised will assist with getting the patients care and support they need. I’m grateful my body still allows me to do what I can do! Very grateful to support this foundation and run for those who can no longer do so!!

Team World Vision is the largest non-governmental provider of clean water in the world. They have provided over 3.4 million people with access to clean water. Like me, they believe in the children in the world! As a teacher I do everything to make sure that my students are safe and healthy! By donating you can sponsor a child. Team World Vision helps ensure that children have better health, improved nutrition, and can go to school instead of traveling to fetch water for their families. 

 

To fundraiser, I am completing pet portraits! Feel free to reach out to me at any run or on Facebook to see my work or order one!

​

I’ve decided that the 2025 BoA Chicago Marathon will be my last full marathon.

 

I’ve chosen to run with Homes for our Troops in honor of my late father, who served our country. Also to help raise awareness of the many Veterans who have served post 9/11 that are in need of a place to live after being severely injured.

 

The money raised will help go to adaptable homes.

I chose the MS Society as my charity because of the profound impact it had on my grandfather’s life during his journey with multiple sclerosis. Their resources and support made a significant difference in his quality of life. Fundraising for the MS Society is my way of honoring his memory and ensuring others receive the same vital support.

I will be selling tickets at Saturday runs for raffles baskets in April. I will award the winners at our run on April 26.
