2026 Team Resilience

Ian Arsenault

October 11, 2026 5:00am - 4:00pm

In a few weeks, I’ll be running the Chicago Marathon with a purpose that goes far beyond the finish line. I’m proud to be running in support of Erika’s Lighthouse, an organization dedicated to mental health education and suicide prevention for young people. Their work helps students recognize when they or someone they care about may be struggling, break down the stigma around mental health, and know that it’s okay to ask for help.

Training for a marathon takes months of commitment, but the impact of a donation can last so much longer. Every contribution helps Erika’s Lighthouse reach more young people with the message that they are not alone and that their mental health matters. 

If you’re able, I’d be incredibly grateful for your support—whether it’s $10, $25, $50, or whatever feels right. And if you’re not in a position to donate, you can still make a huge difference by helping to extend my reach by sharing my fundraising page with your friends, family, coworkers and/or posting it to your socials or in your community (download a printable flyer below). You never know who in your circle might be looking for a way to support this important cause.

Please consider making a donation and/or sharing my fundraising page, and help me turn every mile into a mile that matters. Thank you for cheering me on and helping me support the incredible work of Erika’s Lighthouse!
 

Appreciate you,
