Dear Friends, Family, and Colleagues,
I am thrilled to share that I will be running the TCS New York City Marathon on November 3rd, 2024! The TCS New York City Marathon is one of the world’s most iconic races, drawing thousands of runners from around the globe. Covering 26.2 miles across the five boroughs of New York City, this marathon represents a true test of endurance and spirit. Running this marathon is not just about personal achievement; it’s about uniting to support causes that make a real difference.
And that is why I am dedicating my run to a cause close to my heart: City Harvest.
City Harvest is New York City’s first and largest food rescue organization. Since 1982, they’ve been fighting hunger in our city by rescuing surplus food from restaurants, grocers, bakeries, and farms, and delivering it to hundreds of soup kitchens, food pantries, and other community food programs. Their work ensures that nourishing food reaches New Yorkers in need, helping to combat food insecurity and reduce waste. I have been volunteering with City Harvest since May 2023, and I have seen firsthand the incredible impact they have on our community.
Please consider making a donation to support my marathon run
and City Harvest’s efforts to rescue and deliver food to those who need it most.
Thank you for your support and encouragement as I take on this exciting
challenge!
Olivia
