My Story…
Please join me in supporting the Mario Lemieux Foundation as I attempt to run my first half marathon this upcoming May!
Causes that are dedicated to helping both children and their family members during difficult health challenges are very near and dear to my heart.
That is why, this year I chose to support the Mario Lemieux Foundation for the 2026 Pittsburgh Marathon’s Run for a Reason Charity Program.
Among various patient-focused cancer research and support programs, the Mario Lemieux Foundation offers resources like “Austin’s Playroom”, which aims to help whole families by providing a safe place for kids to be kids while navigating their own treatment or that of a sibling.
Description
Please donate to help me raise money for the Mario Lemieux Foundation as part of the 2026 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Run for a Reason program!
Since their founding in 1993, the Mario Lemieux Foundation has been focused on finding a cure for cancer by funding research and patient care, and supporting families in challenging medical situations. Through ongoing projects at the Mario Lemieux Center for Blood Cancers, the Mario Lemieux Lymphoma Center, the Mario Lemieux Immunotherapy Center, and the recently established Mario Lemieux Center for Heart Rhythm Care, we support research that translates to clinical trails and innovative therapies that save lives.
