Gabby Petito was a passionate traveler and vlogger, full of life and creativity, but after surviving an abusive relationship for nearly a year, Gabby’s life was tragically taken by her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, during a cross-country road trip. Her death led to the creation of the Gabby Petito Foundation, which supports victims of intimate partner violence.
As a domestic violence survivor myself, I know how it feels to be trapped and alone, unable to see a way out. Thanks to the support of my loved ones, I was able to seek help and start rebuilding my life. Gabby’s story reminded me of the importance of speaking out, raising awareness, and supporting survivors.
Through my marathon training, I am fundraising for an organization that helps those in need, educates one the severity of DV, and informs how loved ones can support survivors. Every mile I run honors Gabby’s legacy and the strength of every survivor. With your support, we can provide resources, safe spaces, and hope for those who need it most.
Thank you for helping me make a difference!
