Running to Build Families

On Sunday, November 5, 2023 I will be running in the TCS New York City Marathon for Team Helpusadopt.org!!! My husband was adopted from Latvia when he was just 6 months old. Without his family wanting to adopt him, our current life (and 7 month old son!) wouldn't have been possible! Because of this, we are also currently looking to begin the adoption process ourselves to help expand our family hopefully within the next year or two! I am so excited to support Helpusadopt.org as this is a cause near and dear to our hearts! PLUS, getting to do this with my sister-in-law is just icing on the cake!

Since 2007, Helpusadopt.org has awarded over 600 adoption grants totaling over 5.6 million. Helpusadopt.org's average grant is around $10,000 - this means that together Team Helpusadopt.org will raise enough to build 7 families.

You can help me reach my goal not only by donating, but also by sharing the link to my fundraiser. I am so excited to run to build families on #teamhelpusadopt and to help children in need find the permanent, loving homes that every child deserves.
