WORLD VISION

World Vision works to tackle the root causes of poverty by working with children, families, and their communities to provide things like clean water, health care, nutritious food, education, and economic opportunities.

You can support my efforts through Team World Vision by making a one-time tax-deductible donation.

 

MY STORY

Last year, a friend of mine from Armitage Baptist Church ran the Chicago Marathon with Team World Vision.  Something tugged at my heart when she told me she was running.  I didn't know it then, but a seed had been planted.  This year, my church announced that they were having a team run the Chicago Marathon.  The team would be apart of Team World Vision.  They showed a short video clip about the families that are helped through World Vision.  I instantly remembered that I wanted to do this last year.  Once again there was something tugging at my heart.  So I am running the Chicago Marathon this year, my VERY first marathon ever (I've never even ran before, except after the ice cream truck).  Please help me raise money to help children and families through World Vision.
