Hi everyone! On May 16, I’ll be running my 10th half marathon (the Brooklyn Half) and fundraising for Community-Word Project!

Community-Word Project is a NYC-based nonprofit that brings arts education into underserved schools, helping students build confidence, strengthen literacy skills, and express themselves creatively.

I’m excited to take on this race as a personal challenge and use it as a way to support an organization doing meaningful work for students across New York City.

If you’re able to contribute, any amount goes directly towards impacting these incredible programs.

Thank you for your support, for me and for the kids of NYC :)

About Community-Word Project

Our mission is to facilitate culturally responsive, multidisciplinary art programs for students, teaching artists, and communities to develop and amplify their voices and creative skills. We envision a world where all artists and learners work together to recognize and celebrate the power of their creative voices to manifest a more equitable future.

Every contribution, big or small, makes a real impact. Even just a few dollars can help move this mission forward and reach those who need it most.

If you can’t donate right now, sharing this fundraiser is also incredibly helpful. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. It means the world to me.
