My name is Barbara Salinas, I am 23 years old and from York, PA. I am a recent graduate of Susquehanna University and I will be running the Pittsburgh half marathon to raise funds for the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank. I chose this nonprofit organization because of my time interning in the food security department of a local social services agency during my undergraduate years. Throughout my experience, I witnessed firsthand all the work that goes into running local food pantries as well as the constant challenges that these organizations must overcome. Challenges such as access and equity barriers for clients, economic instability, and ever changing policies. I am thankful to have worked with supervisors who are passionate and committed to addressing food insecurity in our communities. I’m proud to run in support of the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank and would be thankful for any support as I take on this race for a cause that means so much to me.
