Half-Marathon for Ophelia's Place
Donation protected
We are a team of 14 runners participating in the Lake Effect Half Marathon on February, 21st. (Martha Bogo, Miriam Charry, Julia Smaldone, Liz Mullin, Sarah Hinton, Anna Muse, Lila Sullivan, Emily Palermo, Regina Pimentel, Maggie Moskewitz, Jessica Grant, Catherine Arnold, Amy Abshier, Chloe Stiffle)
The money we raise is being donated to the event's charity partner, Ophelia's Place, an organization with the mission of redefining beauty and health by empowering individuals, families and communities impacted by eating disorders, disordered eating, and body dissatisfaction.
Our donation will be used to fund the offering of support services, education and outreach, outpatient and intensive outpatient treatment programs with the Upstate New York Eating Disorder Service. Ophelia’s Place supports 50-75 individuals and families each week, and reaches thousands each year.
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness and 95% of those who suffer from an eating disorder are between the ages of 15-26. We strive to run meaningful miles to promote a healthy lifestyle and attempt to decrease the impact body dissatifaction has on our age-group and on individuals in the Upstate NY area.
Any donations are very appreciated!! Thank you!!
