Help Gretchen raise money

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

My Mission

I'm running the Back Half of the Pittsburgh Marathon this year to benefit WORK, an organization based in Pittsburgh and Los Angeles whose mission is to accompany families in Haiti out of poverty by creating meaningful, sustainable jobs. 

Check out their 2023 Impact Report here. In 2023 alone WORK helped start 73 small businesses. Their efforts are even more meaningful because they help our environment. Last year, WORK's enterprises collected close to 93 million plastic bottles and recycled them into materials that are used by partner companies including Patagonia, Aerie, and Puma. WORK is even more critical now, with gang violence raging in Haiti. Your gift will make a difference.

By supporting WORK's initiatives through sponsoring my Half Marathon run, you will change people's lives for the better. Thank you!


Description

I'm excited to join WORK's Run For A Reason charity team for the Pittsburgh Marathon. WORK is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to accompany families in Haiti out of poverty through good, dignified jobs. I'm proud to be a part of this event, take on this challenge and connect my love for running with a purpose. Please support me by making a donation to my fundraiser. Every dollar counts.
