Hey y'all! It's Wyatt! Thank you so so much for even considering donating to this campaign as we prepare for the world marathon challenge... 7 continents in 7 days! As you know, I'll be running a marathon every day for a week, on EVERY CONTINENT... INCLUDING ANTARCTICA! This 1/2 of the fundraising campaign is dedicated to Feeding America, www.feedingamerica.org.
Feeding America is a nationally recognized and trusted nonprofit organization and "the largest charity working to end hunger in the United States. [They] partner with food banks, food pantries, and local food programs to bring food to people facing hunger. [Feeding America] advocate[s] for policies that create long-term solutions to hunger."
The state I found on their website hurts to read, "More than 47 million people in the US face hunger, including 1 in 5 children." Adequate nutrition is key to a healthy lifestyle. As a running community, we all know how important nutrition is while training and competing at the highest level, and I know I can speak for us all - we take this privilege for granted. Consider your donation as a lifeline to someone who worries about their next meal.
I also did some research on how effective Feeding America is at using their funds. Per charitynavigator.org , "This charity's score is 95%, earning it a Four-Star rating[4/4 stars, the highest rating]. If this organization aligns with your passions and values, you can give with confidence."
I'm so grateful to be a part of this wonderful community, and because Ketone IQ is covering the cost of the 7 continents trip, I think we can instead rally to support a better future as we fight against food insecurity together. Join me in this fundraising effort for an incredible cause with the confidence that your donation will have a positive impact on our entire United States of America! Let's Ride!
(PS, Feeding America and The American Cancer Society are Nana Approved Fundraisers :)
