Running vs. Child Obesity 2

Shekon,

Our children are our future! Sadly, one of the greatest threats to their future is child obesity.

As you know, I completed the 2017 Quebec City Marathon (26.2 miles) and raised $3,800 to combat child obesity in Akwesasne.

Next I will be running in the 2018 Ottawa Marathon on May 27 to raise funds to continue the battle versus child obesity in our community. 100% of the funds that I raise will go to Akwesasne’s Iakwa’shatste Youth Fitness, a wonderful non-profit organization whose main purpose is to provide expert fitness, nutrition and leadership education to youth in Akwesasne and surrounding communities. Iakwa’shatste is a fantastic group of people doing some tremendous work. They had over 700 children go through their program so far! I want to help them help more children!

My goal is to raise a minimum of $10,000. I can’t do it alone – I need your support. Every bit helps! It’s for our children!

Niawen!
