Half Marathon for Homeless Children

Tax deductible
!!! we raised $365 at the bowling fundraiser !!!

This fall I’ll be running the Cambridge Half Marathon in support of Horizons for Homeless Children - an incredible nonprofit dedicated to transforming the lives of young children experiencing homelessness in Massachusetts.

Their mission is powerful: to provide high-quality early education, opportunities for play, and comprehensive family support services.

As a Playspace Activity Leader ("PAL") volunteer, I’ve seen firsthand how meaningful these moments of connection can be. I spend time each week at a local shelter playing with kids - reading, building, pretending, listening... It’s an opportunity for them to just be kids.

With your support, Horizons can continue to:
  • Provide essential early education and developmental resources for young children.
  • Create safe and nurturing play environments that foster social and emotional growth.
  • Offer comprehensive support services for families, helping them achieve stability and success.

Your donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward building brighter futures for some of the most vulnerable children in our community. Want to learn more? Visit horizonschildren.org to see the impact of their work in action.

Thanks for cheering me on, and for supporting a cause that means a lot to me.
