Hi everyone! My name is Connor O'Brien, and I’m raising money for a cause that means a lot to me. Last year I drove two ambulance convoys to Ukraine with the group Ukraine Focus. This year I'm raising money for them to buy more ambulances by running in the Paris marathon in April!

Each ambulance we are able to send over saves up to 250 lives a months. They go to the front lines to evacuate soldiers and civilians attacked by Russians. I can't make it on the next mission, but I still want to do my part and help support the team. All donations will go towards purchasing additional ambulances!

The last time I ran a marathon was in Kyiv in 2018. I told myself I'd never do one again, but when the Ukraine Focus approached me to join their marathon team, I knew I had to do it! I'm training every week, and will do the DC half marathon in the meantime!

To all of my donors, I will send you a short film of the marathon that I will be recording as I run!

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.
