URGENT FUNDRAISING UPDATE!
$144 to go to $10k! All donations will be doubled through race day 10/13/24 to get me to my stretch goal! DONATE HERE A generous donor has agreed to match donations to get me to $10,000! After hitting $7k, I had just $3k to hit the stretch goal of $10k. With matching funds, I now need to get to $8,500, and that last $1,500 will be a match donation. The stipulation: I need to get to $8,500! Even if you've donated before, please consider sharing my fundraiser with your circles or donating again! THANK YOU! $10,000 means clean water for 200 children, as TWV can supply sustainable clean water for $50 per kid. As a full Chicago team of 1,743 participants, we have a goal of $3.5 million, and just crossed the $3m marker. That's 60,000 kids! |

Why am I running for clean water?

Team World Vision Chicago Marathon 2024
Links:
Help me raise $10,000 to develop clean water wells for children all over the world as I run the Chicago Marathon on October 13th 2024! You can donate at the TWV donation page. Incentive Levels: New for this year are bonuses based off donations of a certain level. -$100: Super Hero level. You are a super hero who will be honored as such with a special TWV branded item -$250: Legend level. getting water to 5 makes you a local legend, and legends don't have to pay for a drink. You will get a bottle of Whiskey from my collection. Follow my training progress on Strava, and listen to my tunes during training and during the marathon on Spotify. There are many ways to support this great cause:
Thank you for considering supporting this great cause. There are nearly 700 million people in the world who do not have readily available access to clean water. These unfortunate people will walk an average of 4 miles per day, to fill up a 5 gallon jug (which weighs nearly 41 pounds) so that they have water to drink, wash, and cook with. TWV had a great process in place where they can provide a local well, and can accomplish that at a ratio of $50 per 1 person. That means every $50 donated, 1 person is no longer in critical need for water. The day of the marathon, you can track my progress, find where to cheer me on and even see photos using the Bank of America marathon app. Just download it, and search for me in the runners. I'll be spending pre and post race at the Team World Vision Tent (located at the north side of the park at Randolph and Michigan, enter off Randolph st.). See you October 13th! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! |
