Have you ever wondered what you can do to make a difference? I did, and I found a way: I’m running the NYC Marathon as a member of Team for Kids. In the past eight years, Team for Kids members have raised more than $16 million to support running-based fitness and goal- setting programs for 100,000 schoolchildren a week throughout New York City, around the country, and in Africa. These classes target at-risk kids—most of whom don’t have physical education in their schools. You can ensure that more kids benefit from NYRR’s Youth Programs by sponsoring my run. You can pledge $1.00 for every mile I run ($26.20 total for a marathon, for example) or donate a flat amount. All contributions are tax deductible and will be acknowledged as such in an e-mail to you from Team for Kids. Most importantly, all contributions will go toward helping kids lead healthier, more productive lives. The New York Road Runners Youth Programs teach goal-setting, nutrition, fitness and running skills. Knowing how to make physical fitness a habit can reduce the risk of diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and other costly diseases in this population.
