A MESSAGE FROM Kelyn Soong's Fundraising Page
Ever since I started running marathons back in 2014, the NYC Marathon has been at the top of the list. I was born in Brooklyn and so NYC holds a special place in my heart. I’m so excited that I will be able to run it this year, my ninth overall marathon, for the Asian American Journalists Association.
As the vice president of engagement for AAJA’s D.C. chapter, I see first-hand the importance of the AAJA community, its mission of improving diversity in newsrooms, and the work the organization has done to give Asian American journalists the support and tools needed to succeed, whether its through mentorship programs, professional development events, or mental wellness resources.
Please donate if you can. Donations will go directly to the AAJA New York and D.C. chapters. Thanks so much in advance for the support.
