Running to #stopAAPIhate - AAJC
Tax deductible
Hi there! I am glad you are here helping me to #stopAAPIhate by supporting Asian Americans Advancing Justice - AAJC!
I am Casper Verhoofstad and over the last couple of months I have been shocked by the increased amount of hate based on race, sexuality and gender. With the most recent discrimination against people of Asian descent (up 150%).
Now on a slightly different note... 12 months ago when the COVID-19 pandemic started I decided to run a half-marathon each month the pandemic would last, assuming it would be 2-3 months at best... this month the #12 is coming up!
I hear you thinking... where is this going… Well, I decided to dedicate the 11 (soon to be 12) half marathons to the ‘Asian Americans Advancing Justice’ and put my personal achievement to work to get your donation and support!
By the way, I almost forgot to tell you that my employer will match all donations up to $10000. This means that by donating today you have double the impact!
So far 11 half marathons in numbers (Strava):
- running 232.1 KM (144.2 MI)
- for about 20 hours (average 1:48)
- burning 15000 kcal
- embracing temperatures ranging from -6C (21F) to 23C (74F)
#StopAsianHate, or even better stop all discrimination and hate, today. Period.
