Sonia's Marathon to Fight Hunger
Tax deductible
Hi! I am running a marathon on May 9th to raise money for one of our nation's largest food banks, Feeding America. During this global pandemic, many people face food shortages as schools close, people lose their jobs, and the economy falters. An additional 17.1 million people are expected to face food insecurity in the US as a result of this pandemic (a 46% increase). Restaurants and grocery stores have less excess food to donate, so I think raising money for a food bank is especially important now.
With good access to food myself and feeling a little helpless, I want to help. Feeding America, the largest domestic hunger-relief organization in the US, is desperately in need of help as it projects needing $1.4 billion to respond to the pandemic. I was supposed to run a marathon in Maine on May 9th but it was cancelled so I thought this would be a good day to run for a good cause! I am planning to run my own (socially distant) marathon in DC and would love it if you would consider being a sponsor - 100% of the proceeds will go directly to Feeding America. I know my goal is ambitious but the need is so great.
Thank you and stay healthy. Love, Sonia
