Help Rachel raise money

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

My Story…

Hello! I'm fundraising for Light of Life Rescue Mission- an incredible nonprofit in our city working to transform the lives of our homeless brothers and sisters. Homelessness has always been near to my heart, and I look forward to raising as much money as I can for the mission.

This will be my 4th marathon and my 1st marathon in Pittsburgh. I just moved here recently and it's been great getting to know the city better while training!

My goal is to raise at least $1,500 to provide options and security for more of our homeless neighbors. Consider partnering with me to reach this goal!
