A MESSAGE FROM Team Jimmy Fundraiser
As some of you may know, in January 2023 our lives changed forever when my dad suffered a severe stroke. It left him with right-side paralysis, aphasia, and apraxia. It’s been a challenging journey, but one filled with hope and determination.

I’m excited to share that Charlie and I have committed to running the 2024 Chicago Marathon with the Brain Injury Recovery Foundation, a cause that’s now incredibly dear to us. This organization has been a lifeline for countless families like mine, providing support, resources, and hope to those affected by brain injuries. 

My dad was always the loudest voice on the sidelines when I played lacrosse. His cheers and encouragement (and yelling at refs) pushed me to be my best, no matter what odds. While his stroke silenced his voice, it hasn’t dimmed his spirit. He’s still my biggest cheerleader, now supporting me on this new journey. 

Now, I’m asking for your support. Every donation (no matter the size) will make a difference. Your contribution will go directly to the Brain Injury Recovery Foundation, helping them continue their vital work and improving the life of people like my dad. 

🧠🏃‍♀️Here’s how you can help: click the donate button!! Thank you for being a part of this journey with me❤️‍🩹 Go Team Jimmy!! BTW - my dad was the fastest man in New York for a short time, so I have big shoes to fill!
