I Run for Those Who Cannot...

The goal is simple: ensure families in the Greater Philadelphia area with a loved one fighting cancer never go hungry again. 

On March 29th, 2026, I am running the Philadelphia Love Run Half Marathon and dedicating every mile to ensuring no cancer patients in Philadelphia or their families go hungry or lose their homes. Each week, families across Philadelphia with a loved one fighting cancer go hungry, and without the Emergency Patient Support Network, countless cancer patients in Philadelphia will continue facing hunger. Legacy of Hope created the Emergency Patient Support Network in partnership with Philadelphia hospitals to quickly identify financially disadvantaged Philadelphia cancer patients and provide emergency support, preventing hunger and homelessness. Legacy of Hope also funds emerging cancer research, aiming to ensure emerging and promising research is properly supported in addition to making sure no patient or their family's needs go unmet.

As a nursing student, I want to be involved in every way I can to bridge disparities in healthcare and do my part to support patients and their families. Legacy of Hope is an extremely inspiring organization that I am honored to be running for.

If you are able to, please support me as I train and run in this race! Every dollar helps!

Spread the word: Philadelphia cancer patients and their families do not go hungry!
