Help Kitty raise money

For participating in 2021 Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon

My Story…

This is my 4th year running for Across, my 2nd year joining the virtual marathon.  It has been a humbling experience running in joining the Toronto Marathon, everyone is running for a good cause and I chose to run for an organization that is dear to my heart - Across U-hub.

Across has nurtured me to who I am today.  During my early days in Canada as a teenager, Across helped me build a sense of belonging to Toronto, a city that I now called my home.  Many times when I needed to my critical life choices like university major, career changes, I was supported by the mentors and peers in this community.  I am who I am today because this organization believes in youth and in finding the potential in every individual.

I am now a wife and mother of 2, juggling between my career and family life. During the past 20 months of pandemic, I would have days when I have self-doubt or when life felt overwhelming and I'd find myself chatting with the same life mentors that I met here, seeking for words of affirmation or positive vibes.

It's been a tough year for many and especially for non-profit organizations.  This non-profit organization needs our financial support for its existence.  I sincerely invite you to become an enabler of this ministry, so that the work to build a better next generation can be continued.

Please donate to support this organization. Thank you so much for your support!!
