Hi, I'm Paloma! I'm an ultra-marathoner who often runs to raise money and awareness for various causes and organizations.
On May 24th, 2026, is the 4 year mark of the tragedy that forever changed the lives of the entire town of Uvalde TX and shook our whole Country. In my effort to honor our 21 angels' lives, I am planning to once again run/walk in Uvalde TX for 24 hours while raising money for scholarships given in their memory. Everyone is welcome to join me for a few miles at any time between 4pm on Saturday May 23rd to 4pm on Sunday May 24th.
Every $1000 dollar raised will be given to a senior from Uvalde High School. I have had the honor to meet many of the parents of our 21 angels and will ask them for their input to choose the recipients.
After the tragedy, the UHS football team decided that the jersey #21 was an honor and a responsibility only worthy to be worn by the player that bests represent the grieving community's values; a true leader, chosen by his peers. In 2025-2026, that person was Diego Granados. The first $1000 scholarship will go to him.

Thank you so much for helping the community and let us not forget their names!!
