A MESSAGE FROM Amanda
I am excited to share I am running my first ever marathon in my favorite city in the world! There is nothing like marathon day in the city and I am so excited to be a part of it. I am running with the New York Junior League, an organization I have volunteered with since 2016. I have been focused on working with children in Harlem striving to provide tools to empower their future's through arts and sciences. I have been able to see the impact first hand in the nyc community and it will mean the world to me if you are able to donate. No donation is too small!
