Hey all 👋🏽! My name is Baker- I am participating in this event for my love for art and self-expression. We are living in times where creatives are getting affected the most due to COVID. Art has helped me heal from past trauma. Art has been helped me learn to trust my intuition and thrive. Art has helped build me up during rough times in my life. As a result, I decided to help raise funds for Greater Toronto Philharmonic Orchestra Community @ Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon.
Due to a couple injuries these past months, I have decided to walk a Marathon (42.2 km) this year on Nov 7th, 2020. Would love your support to help a local music & art community to thrive and have a place when things move back to normal again. 🙏🏽
