Why I Run

I'm proudly supporting Semper Fi & America's Fund as a community athlete for the 2024 Chicago Marathon Semper Fi & America's Fund Team.  Semper Fi & America’s Fund cares for our nation’s critically wounded ill, and injured service members, veterans, and military families. Supporting all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces, they provide one-on-one case management, connection, and lifetime support. 

The Fund has made an impact in my life through coping with my grief of suddenly losing my brother in 2022 through activism and advocacy for our nation’s critically wounded, ill, and injured service members, veterans, and military families of all branches. He was injured in the Air Force and had to overcome obstacles, live with chronic pain, and give up some of his active lifestyle.  I want to help raise money so other members of the service can be cared for and the resources provided as they navigate injuries and illnesses sustained while serving our country. 

In 2023, I was able to run side-by-side and volunteer with the military personnel who are positively impacted by the Fund's resources to make their quality of life better and that just made me more motivated to continue with my involvement with the cause as I learned their stories. I want to continue to donate and raise funds to help provide for our injured military personnel and their families at a time when help is needed the most.

Today. Tomorrow. Together.
