<div>Hi everyone! My name is Jill Homan, and I’m taking on one of the biggest challenges of my life: running 7 marathons in 7 days on 7 continents on November 15th-21st 2026.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m not doing it just for the finish lines. I’m doing it to raise funds for Isaiah 117 House in North Carolina.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Isaiah 117 House supports children who have been removed from their homes and are waiting for foster placement. These children are often scared, overwhelmed, and entering one of the hardest moments of their lives. My goal is to turn this endurance challenge into real support for them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why this matters to me
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every marathon mile will be run with purpose — to help provide comfort, care, and practical support for children in crisis, and to support the mission of Isaiah 117 House in North Carolina.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This challenge is physically demanding, but it is nothing compared to what these children face. That’s why I’m asking for your help.
</div>
