My Story…
It's been years since I've participated in a race, so what better way to dive back in with my favorite marathon, in my favorite city, supporting an organization that I feel is so important and impactful? I've always run to support incredible causes, and this year, I'm running to raise money for 412 Food Rescue, because I believe nobody should have to go hungry.
From their page:
412 Food Rescue’s mission is to prevent perfectly good food from entering the waste stream by redirecting it to households in poverty and nonprofit organizations serving those who are experiencing food insecurity.
Founded in 2015 in direct response to the disconnect between the fact that in the US, nearly 40% of all food produced is wasted while 1 in 8 people experience food insecurity. Food waste is also one of the leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions and is the single largest component in our landfills.
Donate to help Caitlen raise money for 2024 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend’s fundraising campaign.
