Welcome to My Personal page about Emily and why I keep coming back to CHI.
On October 13th, we will be representing Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) at the 2024 Bank of America Chicago Marathon! Running the 8th CHI marathon in memory of my daughter Emily, as a member of Team RMHC, wr will be training, fundraising and ultimately running 26.2 miles to help keep families together. RMHC kept my family close to Emily while she was in the hospital. It is hard to believe, but she would have been 18 this year and I like to think running with me to raise money to help keep families close as their children are sick in the hospital
Did you know RMHC helps millions of families each year? RMHC helps families cope better and focus on the needs of their sick child, allowing them the ability to spend more time with their child, to interact with their doctors, and to make important decisions about their child’s care.
It costs approximately $100 to give a family one night of comfort and support. Your donation, of any amount, will not only help me achieve my goal, but will help children stay close to their families when they need it most!
