My Story…
I am running my first Marathon ever in memory of my sister, Angela. My sister was a runner. 4 years ago, I decided to start running in her memory. I couldn't run 1 mile without stopping! She truly inspires me daily to live the life God gave me to the fullest.
To celebrate her life, I am running the Pittsburgh Marathon and raising money for the Non-Profit of my choice: "Light of Life Rescue Mission." Light of Life provides food, shelter, and outreach to those most in need in the Pittsburgh area.
Description
Since 1952, Light of Life Rescue Mission, a non-profit 501(C)(3) organization, continues to transform lives for women, children, men, and families experiencing homelessness, poverty and addiction. Light of Life is the place where hope and healing meet. We are igniting transformation through truth-based programming with our continuum of care and the love of Christ. Our goal is to restore those in need to healthy members of our community.
Last year, the impact we made together included:
- 377,000+ meals, between 300-350 meals a day
- 130 beds available in both buildings across all programs
- 3 chapel services for those in need every day
- 153+ in our Men’s, Women’s and Children’s Programs
- 1,500 Thanksgiving donner baskets provides to families in need
