I Run for Those Who Cannot...
On March 27, 2022, I am running the Philadelphia Love Half Marathon to help ensure no cancer patients in Philadelphia, or their families, go hungry or lose their homes.
Like many people, I have a number of family members who have been diagnosed with cancer. My family members have been fortunate to not lose their homes or starve due to the exorbiant cost of medical care. For other families, this is not the case. Every week, families across Philadelphia with a loved one fighting cancer struggle to afford the cost of living. Without the Emergency Patient Support Network, created by Legacy of Hope in partnership with Philadelphia hospitals, countless cancer patients would face hunger and the threat of homelessness. Support my race so they can continue to provide emergency support to financially disadvantaged patients.
I am running in honor of those who have passed from cancer and in honor of my loved ones who have fought and are fighting this relentless disease.
Every dollar helps.

Legacy of Hope, like most other organizations, has been impacted by the current events, economic downturn, and event cancellations, yet Legacy of Hope refuses to scale back its emergency patient support operations because a resulting loss of life will never be an option.
Over the next few months, we will train, have fun doing what we love, bring our city together, and make some incredible memories along the way. In doing so we’ve been given an awesome opportunity to ensure no family in Philadelphia goes hungry because a loved one is fighting cancer, creating a legacy which will outlive all of us. Our goal for the Love Run 2022 (Philly Runs Free campaign) is $250,000. This will ensure that no family living in Philadelphia goes hungry or loses their home because a loved one has cancer. No elderly parent, or spouse, or child, or cancer patient will have to wonder where their next meal will come from, or will they will live.
