My Story…
I am challenging myself this spring with going from 0 to 5K in support of The Ottawa Food Bank. I am doing this with my team, The Flamingos. After a winter spent being very inactive, this will definitely be a challenge - but it's good to get outside, and it will be worth the effort.
The Ottawa Food Bank is important to me because growing up, my family didn't have a lot of money and we relied on food banks to ensure we had enough to eat. I am fortunate enough to not be in that place anymore, but I know that many are not so fortunate.
Now more than ever, people are in need of these services. People who of no choice of their own are unable to work right now and support their families.
If you are able to support me in this, I would really appreciate it.
With the Ottawa Food Bank, $1 Donated Equals $5 Food. This means that if I reach my new fundraising goal, it will support the community by providing $7,500 worth of food for those in need. 100% of donations goes to support the charity, as Scotiabank is kindly covering all transaction fees.
Every dollar helps. If you can't donate, please consider sharing my campaign with your friends. Or just send me some messages to cheer me on with my prep runs in the lead-up to the main event!
Many thanks in advance for your support!
