Help Special Needs Individuals Through Equine Dreams

As many of you know, my passion for horses has profoundly shaped my life. They have taught me invaluable lessons in responsibility, discipline, patience, trust, persistence, and confidence. Similarly, my journey in running—though challenging—reflects these same values. I had set a goal to run a full marathon before I turned 40, and while life has brought its challenges, I remain committed to this dream. (just a couple years late)

I am excited to run the Chicago Marathon for Equine Dreams, a non-profit organization that provides Therapeutic Equine Assisted Services. They work tirelessly to enhance the independence and quality of life for individuals with special needs. Their vision is to ensure that everyone, regardless of ability or income, has the opportunity for life-long learning and personal growth.

I kindly ask for your support through donations to this amazing cause. Your contribution can help provide children and adults with special needs the chance to be active and engaged in a way that they may not otherwise experience.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to make a difference. Together, we can help those who cannot run for themselves.
