My Story…

This year I’m running my first ever 5K 

I’m doing this race in support of sickle cell disease, a condition that affects so many people but still doesn’t get nearly enough awareness, research, or funding. My mom has lived with sickle cell while dedicating her entire career to helping others through medicine. Watching her wake up every day with compassion, strength, and purpose is a huge part of why I wanted to do this.

Outside of work in advocacy/non-profit communications, fitness has become a really important part of my life. I’m in the gym regularly, but this will be my first official race and honestly a big personal challenge for me.

If you feel inclined to donate or support the cause, it would truly mean a lot 

And if you want to follow along with my training journey leading up to race day, you can find me on fitness IG: @stalli.built

Donate to help Naftalia raise money for 2026 TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon’s fundraising campaign.
