Help Hongmei raise money

For participating in 2021 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend

My Story…

I have been running in the last several years, including the Pittsburgh Half Marathon last year.   I wish I could run the full Pittsburgh Marathon though I appreciate my limited capacity. Now I would have an opportunity to run the Back Half of Pittsburgh Marathon ( the second half of the marathon course) in May 2021, though it is exclusively available to RUN FOR A REASON. 

I have volunteered in Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank after the summer. I have never felt my privilege of food secure in my life until I saw people who had struggled with hunger, especially with the impact of COVID-19, and the appreciations expressed on their faces after they lined up in cars getting food in need.  I would like to connect my running with purpose-- to help more people in need.  I  chose to raise money for the Food Bank as my official charity.  

$1 you give could provide 5 meals to people in need.   I appreciate your generosity in helping those in need and relieving/eliminating the hunger in our community.

Thank you for support of my running!

If no in person race by May 2021, I will make it a virtual race.  

Donate to help Hongmei raise money for 2021 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend’s fundraising campaign.
