My Story…

I am running the Dick's Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Half Marathon this year as a charity runner for an organization near and dear to my heart -- the Light of Life Rescue Mission. I love the mission and the support they provide to those experiencing homelessness. Not only do they provide meals. They provide ministry, education, mental health support, and shelter along with food and companionship. Plus SO much more!  I am excited to 'Run for a Reason" and couldn't be happier to support the Life of Light Rescue Mission. 

Description

Since 1952, Light of Life Rescue Mission, a non-profit 501(C)(3) organization, continues to transform lives for women, children, men, and families experiencing homelessness, poverty and addiction. Light of Life is the place where hope and healing meet. We are igniting transformation through truth-based programming with our continuum of care and the love of Christ. Our goal is to restore those in need to healthy members of our community.


Last year, the impact we made together included:

  1. 500,000+ meals provided through our kitchen & food pantry
  2. 3,000 unique guests served through our emergency shelter
  3. 558 chapel services
  4. 22 Program graduates & completions
  5. 300,000 items distributed through our donations center
