Miles for Border Kindness
Donation protected
This October, I will be running the Marine Corps Marathon in support of Border Kindness, an organization committed to supporting our neighbors at our southern border. If you have been looking for a way to help this horrific situation, please consider joining me in my goal of raising $2620 ($100 for every mile I run).
Every penny donated will go directly to the migrants, refugees, and displaced persons who are fighting every day for a chance at a better life.
About Border Kindness:
"Border Kindness provides migrants, refugees, and the displaced with comprehensive services that include food, shelter, clothing and medical care. Our programs and interventions are designed to identify, protect and nurture the most vulnerable – including women, children, elderly and families.
Border Kindness believes everyone should have the opportunity to live free of pain, hunger, intimidation and fear.
We believe everyone is our neighbor."
This is an URGENT need & no donation is too small. Thank you for anything you are able to contribute!
