Help me "paws" for a cause at the Philly Marathon! 
I’m taking on the 2026 Philadelphia Marathon in honor of Melli and also supporting the Canine Companions D.C. Dogfest! 
I’ve committed to running 26.2 miles and raising funds to support Canine Companions, an organization that provides life-changing service dogs to people with disabilities for free.
How you can help:
Donate: Even small amounts make a huge difference in training these hero dogs.
Share: Send my page to everyone you know especially the dog lovers!
Cheer: Come cheer for me and the rest of my team on race day!
The finish line is at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, but the real win is helping someone gain their independence. Click the donate now button to show your support!
