Help Gretchen raise money

For participating in 2022 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend

My Story…

This year I'm running the Pittsburgh Half Marathon on May 1st to support the Magee-Womens Research Institute & Foundation. Why? Because women's health remains under-researched, and Magee-Womens is doing groundbreaking work to fill critical gaps in our knowledge. It's also the largest women's health research organization in the United States.

Example: my friend and running buddy, Dr. Janet Catov, is researching the links between preterm birth and the mother's cardiovascular health over time, to help women live longer, healthier lives.

Of note: it takes preliminary data and findings to secure research grants. Your donation will help fund the fellows and interns who generate those data sets.

Just as women's rights are human rights, improving women's health benefits all humankind. 

Thank you for your support!

Donate to help Gretchen raise money for 2022 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend’s fundraising campaign.
