Friends and family,
I'm excited to say that I will be running the 2015 NYC Half Marathon in March to raise funds for the Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation, a national organization dedicated to finding cures for childhood cancer.
The Foundation emerged from a young cancer patient's lemonade stand and her desire to help other children. Alex Scott raised over $1 million to help find a cure for cancer before she passed away in 2004 at eight years old. The nation responded and currently the Foundation has raised over $100 million for childhood cancer research.
Achieving my goal of raising $3,500 toward cancer research will make every mile that much more meaningful. Thank you so much for your suppport!
