My Story
I am running the Sporting Life 10K in memory of Shiven Shah. Shiven is my dear friend Yatri’s eldest son whose spirit and smile live on. Although I did not get to meet this brave sweet boy, to look at a photo of him is to know him. There is a light and kindness about him that shines through in pictures. Yatri has shared stories with me of how Campfire Circle (formerly Camp Oochigeas) played such a big part in helping Shiven and the whole family find moments of joy and “normalcy” during some incredibly tough times.
I hope you’ll sponsor me for this amazing cause and help more children going through seriousness illness find little moments of joy.
