I've always said I want to run a marathon so I thought, given that I’m living in New York, I’d start with the Brooklyn Half - it being a year of firsts!
Since moving to New York, I've joined the St. George's Society Fundraising Committee, with the goal of organizing events to raise money to help enrich the quality of life for people in need through acts of giving. On October 19, six committee members are running the half marathon to raise awareness and funds for the charity. All donations would be greatly appreciated.
I'm ready for the challenge! Thank you in advance - I'll be posting lots of pictures on Instagram!

OVER 250 YEARS OF GIVING
Since our founding in 1770, St. George's Society of New York has dedicated itself to improving the lives of people in need, assisting thousands of individuals of British and Commonwealth descent in the New York area. Our charitable programs have a major impact on the local community by protecting the elderly at risk of homelessness, helping low-income students to attain a college degree and providing a support network for families affected by pediatric cancer. Whilst our assistance has taken many forms over the years, our fundamental purpose remains constant: we are people helping people.
