This year, I’m running the NYC Half Marathon for the National Kidney Foundation, a cause that means the world to me. Growing up, I attended kidney walks with my family and met so many inspiring people living with kidney disease. Over the years, I’ve grown close to friends and loved ones who’ve faced the challenges of this condition, and it’s opened my eyes to their strength and resilience.
 

Kidney health is also a part of my family’s story—some of my family members have worked in dialysis, and still work in helping improve the lives of those with kidney disease every single day. Their dedication and compassion inspire me, and running this race feels like my way of giving back and making an impact.
 

Every donation helps fund life-saving research, education, and support for the millions affected by kidney disease. Thank you for supporting this journey and helping make a difference!
