Running for Flights!
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Sharon and I am raising money for PALS- Patient Airlift Services. I am running the Long Island Half Marathon on Sunday, May 1, 2022. This will be my 4th half marathon and I was thinking of ways to push myself to beat my personal record....What better way than to raise money for an amazing service! My dad, David Rosen is a pilot and over the years he has been volunteering his time and money for this organization. PALS arranges free air transportation services for people in need. Patients and their families are not responsible for any of the air transportation cost. Recently I found out that my dad was volunteering to be ground transport for the families as the out of pocket expenses to fly are significant. He loves to fly and his huge heart loves helping others (apple doesn't fall far from the tree). The money raised here will all be used for flights for families in need through PALS, with my dad as the volunteer pilot.
Over the next 16 weeks I will post my progress in training, and for those interested I will provide my bib number when we get to race time. Afterwards I will continue to post updates about trips you help make possible!!!!!
