A MESSAGE FROM Michael’s Marathon Fundraiser
My name is Michael Martire, and I will be running the 2023 Chicago Marathon in support of a charity very near and dear to my heart. Hope for the Day is a non-profit organization to help educate about suicide prevention and mental health awareness. On September 3, 2022 a beautiful soul was taken from us too soon. Taylor Dulowski was unique in the best way possible. She was a gifted artist with a creative mind, evident through her many tattoos and the art pieces she created for others to cherish. She loved Disney and horror, and maybe most of all, caring for her many animals. While Taylor and I might not of had the most in common, we shared one of the most powerful and meaningful emotions one can have: love. A love for her sister, Jordan; her mom and dad, Patti and Paul; and the rest of their family. I ask that you please consider donating so I can reach(and surpass!) my goal as I race towards the finish line for Taylor, Jordan, Patti, Paul, and all others who have been effected by suicide and mental illness. Thank you for considering donating in support of such an important cause.
