Please help me cross the finish line of the Bank of America Chicago Marathon. I am running for Chicago Run a fantastic organization that provides running programs in Chicago Public Schools in some of the most at risk neighborhoods in the city. Not only does the program help fight childhood obesity through running, but also promotes a healthy and active lifestyle while also building self esteem!

Your donation will help keep the program active in many schools but also aid in the implementation into more schools!

Our mission is to promote the health and wellness of Chicago children through innovative, engaging, and sustainable youth running programs. We currently serve 13,400 students throughout Chicago in 55 Chicago Public Schools. 89 % of Chicago Run participants qualify for free or reduced lunch. Chicago Run currently has a wait list of schools. All donations will help Chicago Run meet the demand and allow for more children in Chicago to get up and running during the 2012-2013 school year.
