A MESSAGE FROM Mo’s Fundraising Page
Harlem Lacrosse is a school-based youth organization whose mission is to provide opportunities, relationships, and experiences that activate the skills and traits to put youth on a path to success as students, athletes, and citizens. For ten years Harlem Lacrosse has been a catalyst for educational access, equity and belonging in the lives of youth. As a supporter of Harlem Lacrosse I share their belief in the power of opportunity for all youth. No matter a child’s family income, zip code, the color of their skin, how they identify or what language they use at home, they are all deserving of pathways to success.
Harlem Lacrosse's sports-based youth development model empowers students to become lifelong learners and achieve the goals they set for themselves by providing wrap-around programming that includes daily study halls, mentoring, push-in academic support and tutoring, admissions counseling, leadership training, service-learning, career exploration, college trips and character-building lacrosse instruction and competition.

The NYC Marathon plays a vital role every year in making Harlem Lacrosse’s year-round programming available to over 1000 student-athletes in New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston and Los Angeles. As I train to run on behalf of Harlem Lacrosse's NYC Marathon Team, I am committed to raising $3,500 to help provide each student daily, school-based academic intervention, mentoring, admissions counseling, and lacrosse services. Any and all support to help reach this goal is greatly appreciated!
