9/7 UPDATE:
WOW!!!!! Thanks to your incredible generosity, I’ve DOUBLED my $5,000 fundraising goal — I’m so deeply grateful for your support! However, I'm still trying to reach my goal of rallying 80+ donors. Every gift, no matter the size, helps expand the impact we’re making for wounded, ill, and injured service members through the Semper Fi Fund. In addition to a donation, please consider sharing this fundraiser with friends, family, or anyone who might want to be part of our efforts!
With love and gratitude,
Kathryn

I’m running the 50th Marine Corps Marathon on behalf of the Semper Fi & America’s Fund! Thank you for visiting my fundraising page and for considering a donation to support The Fund’s incredible mission.
As the proud daughter of a retired Marine Colonel (OORAH), I am passionate about helping veterans and their families, who have sacrificed so much for our freedom. So passionate, in fact, that I said I was done running marathons and somehow, I'm lacing up for another one!
In 2018, my Dad and I teamed up to raise over $4,000 for The Fund, supported by more than 60 donors. It was one of the most meaningful things we’ve done together. This time, my goal is to raise at least $5,000 and to rally 80+ donors by race day on October 26!
Thank you so much in advance for your generosity and for any amount you’re able to give. Every single dollar donated will make a difference in our veteran's lives.
