Fundraiser Details
When
Hey everyone!
As some of you know, I started running about a year ago with the initial goal of completing a 10K in September 2014 and then a half marathon in March 2015. Well, I'm now pretty hooked, so I've signed up for the Philadelphia Half Marathon in November. This fall I will be running to support a family friend (and local rockstar), Maya, in her fight against "Bob the Blob!"
When Maya was diagnosed with cancer for a second time, rather than be negative, this amazing 10-year-old decided to channel her energy (and the support of friends and family) into complete selflessness. Rather than ask people for gifts as she goes through various treatments, she has asked people to donate to Alex's Lemonade Stand! She first set her goal for 10K, then 25K...and then 100K, crushing each goal without batting an eyelash. Now, she has her sights set on 250K, and I have no doubt that she's going to accomplish this in no time.
Every dollar that I raise will be credited towards Maya's stand to help her reach her 250K goal. If you would like to donate to her stand directly, you can here: http://www.alexslemonade.org/mypage/1121536.
Thank you for visiting my page. No donation is too small!
