My Story…

Hi all! I'll be running 13.1 miles on May 4, 2025 to raise funds for 412 Food Rescue.

After the 2024 election, I found myself feeling angry, anxious and hopeless about the future. I'm channeling those feelings into action by supporting an organization that materially improves our community members' day-to-days during uncertain, trying times.

We're experiencing both a food insecurity crisis and a climate crisis worldwide. According to 412 Food Rescue's website, "We waste up to 40% of our food globally (translating to over 1.3 billion tons annually), while 1 in 7 people go hungry every day. According to ReFed, if we recovered about half (46 billion pounds) of the food being wasted, we could feed every hungry person in the United States 3 meals a day, every day." 412 Food Rescue is working to change that.

412 Food Rescue is a Pittsburgh-based NGO that saves perfectly good food from resources like grocery stores, caterers, manufacturers and more and redistributes it to the community for free. This mission both prevents food waste and feeds member of our community.

I love 412 Food Rescue because it tackles so many issues through its work, all the while bringing the community together. We need that now more than ever.

My goal is to raise $1000. These funds will support 412 Food Rescue's endeavors. I hope you will donate to this amazing organization.
