My Story…
This year, I’m running the BMO Vancouver Marathon in support of Employ to Empower — an organization dedicated to helping individuals gain meaningful employment and build brighter futures.
Employment changes lives. It creates independence, dignity, and opportunity. That’s why this cause matters so much to me.
Training for 42.2 km is challenging, but it’s nothing compared to the barriers many people face when trying to enter the workforce. Every donation helps support programs that empower individuals with the skills, confidence, and opportunities they deserve.
If you’re able to contribute, I would be so grateful. Thank you for helping me turn every kilometer into impact.
