This year, I'm honored to be running the 2025 NYC Marathon for a cause close to my heart: Tackle Kids Cancer. Volunteering at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta opened my eyes to the incredible challenges faced by children battling cancer and their families. It's heartbreaking to see such young lives interrupted by illness.

But these kids are fighters. Their strength and resilience inspire me every day. It makes me deeply grateful for my own health and motivates me to make a difference.

That's why I'm fundraising for Tackle Kids Cancer. Their donations directly support research at the Children's Cancer Institute at Hackensack Meridian Health. Here's the shocking truth: pediatric cancer is the #1 cause of death by disease in children in the USA, yet only 4% of cancer research funding goes towards it. We need to change that.

With your help, we can get closer to a world where no child has to fight cancer. Thank you for supporting my run and let's TACKLE KIDS CANCER!
