Erin's Chicago Marathon fundraiser for Phil's Friends

I'm Erin and I am excited to run my 6th Chicago Marathon on October 12, 2025. This time I am choosing to run the 26.2 miles on behalf of Phil’s Friends, a nonprofit that provides support to cancer patients throughout the United States. Volunteers with Phil's Friends meet at Hope Centers every week to prepare letters of encouragement and care packages to send to patients at home or in the hospital. This year they expect to support at least 10,000 individuals. In the future, they hope to expand internationally, increase their volunteer base and develop additional mechanisms to provide ongoing support to both cancer patients and their families.

Please consider contributing to this organization that is making a difference in the lives of people living with cancer. All donations are tax-deductible (GoFundMe will provide a receipt). More information about this charity may be found here: https://philsfriends.org/ and in this recent news article: https://wgntv.com/news/features/phils-friends-delivering-hope-to-cancer-patients-through-care-packages/. Any amount you contribute to this organization on my behalf will be meaningful and is appreciated.
