Victor's 2017 TCS NYC Marathon
Donation protected
Running is one of my greatest passions. As a Veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom I've learned that no matter how tired physically or mentally you are you just keep on pushing until the mission is accomplished, the same philosophy applies running a marathon. That's why on November 5, 2017 I will be taking on a new challenge, running the TCS New York City Marathon for the first time. I need you to motivate me running those grueling 26.2 miles through all 5 Boroughs.
What motivates me is giving back to others. So I've decided to dedicate my run to the incredible organization Team for Kids https://runwithtfk.org/
This New York-based nonprofit is making dreams come true for kids facing multipe obstacles. Any donation no matter how small it is would be highly appreciated it.
Funds raised by Team for Kids members support NYRR Youth Programs. Through school-based programs, free youth events, and a collection of digital resources, NYRR Youth Programs bring free running and fitness programs to students across the country. Team for Kids funds help support programs for more than 200,000 children in more than 1,000 schools and community centers nationwide. Since 2002, Team for Kids members have raised more than $40 million dollars. Funding helps pay for training for teachers and coaches, most of whom are volunteers, program and practice supplies, and student incentives.
For most of these kids, running with an NYRR program is their only opportunity to get exercise or play sports. NYRR Youth Programs have been recognized by Partnership for a Healthier America and First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move campaign as a leader in the fight against childhood obesity and health issues.
