I am super blessed to announce my acceptance to the 2026 Bank of America Chicago Marathon, an Abbott World Major. Even better, I get to run for a great cause with Team Lurie Children's. 

I am dedicating my 26.2 miles to advancing research, supporting families, and helping provide access for more kids. As a nonprofit hospital, Lurie Children's depends on donations to provide the best care for children. I hope you will help me reach my $2,500 goal in support of their parents and families.

I am very grateful for every share, pledge, and word of encouragement. 

Here’s how your donations can make a difference:

$100 is enough to help make a child’s hospital stay a more positive experience with activities, supplies and toys.

$250 can provide patients with the support they need to thrive after lengthy hospital stays.

$500 supports clinical trials to help discover new or more effective treatment options.

$1000 means we can train the next generation of experts.

All donations are tax-deductible and will be acknowledged by Lurie Children’s Foundation.

On behalf of the patients and families of Lurie Children’s, thank you for your support!
