Help Eldon raise money

For participating in Toronto Marathon

My Story…

Hi Everyone, Thanks for stopping by. I'm Eldon and I'm at it again... For those who know my story, I'm far from a long distance runner; I'm an asthmatic "bubble boy" who hardly knows the first thing about running marathons. That said, I'm running this year in support of building affordable homes for vulnerable communities in Canada. I was born in Canada, but my family immigrated to Canada in the early 70s. They spent most of their early lives living in the close quarters of affordable housing. It wasn't easy but they overcame and carved out a life in this great country. Many new Canadians and settled Canadians are still dealing with housing insecurity. This year, I'm challenging myself by attempting the Full Marathon and a climb up Mount Kilimanjaro in support of Habitat For Humanity and other organizations fighting to build homes. Donations, big or small count towards making a difference, and will fuel me on this journey when the knees get weak and stomach queasy. Thanks, Eldon
