Help Matthew raise money

For participating in 2023 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend

My Story…

Hi Everyone! This year I’ll be running the Pittsburgh Marathon for Light of Life Rescue Mission on May 7th. Last year, I ran the half marathon for Light of Life and had an awesome experience with the fundraising process. This year, I’m hoping to raise over $500! Light of Life continues to do incredible outreach throughout the Pittsburgh community. I’m proud to be apart of their team this year! Please consider donating if you’re able to!

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:

  1. 377,000+ meals, between 300-350 meals a day
  2. 130 beds available in both buildings across all programs
  3. 3 chapel services for those in need every day
  4. 153+ in our Men’s, Women’s and Children’s Programs
  5. 1,500 Thanksgiving donner baskets provides to families in need
