Help Samer raise money

For participating in 2024 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend

My Story…

FOR BETTER LIFE is a ministry supported by The Arabic Christian Church of Pittsburgh to help the immigrant families coming to find A Better Life in the city of Pittsburgh.


Resettled in a foreign country, refugees have been facing insurmountable challenges: learning a new language, juggling large families with scarce job opportunities and English-learning classes and facing difficulties as families and school students to integrate in a culturally different society.


This coming Pittsburgh Marathon 2024, FOR BETTER LIFE Ministries is participating with a running team that includes refugee families. By running as part of our team, refugees will boost their sense of INTEGRATION and BELONGING in their new home. 


YOUR DONATION to our FOR BETTER LIFE Marathon Team will be directed exclusively to the social and financial support of the refugees families. Part of the funds will be dedicated to support their rent payment, furnishing, purchase of winter clothing and for emergency medical situations. Another part will help us establish a micro-loan borrowing system to encourage them to launch small businesses.
