I Run for Those Who Cannot...
I’ve been chosen by the Love Run and Legacy of Hope to be an officially sponsored athlete of the 2022 Philadelphia Love Run Half Marathon!
I am running the Philadelphia Love Half Marathon in memory of our dad, Peter C. McVeigh, and will be dedicating every mile to ensure no family loses their home or goes without food because a loved one is fighting cancer.
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.
Please consider supporting me with my personal fundraising goal of $6K. Any donation, no matter the amount, will help those who need it most.
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.
