As CEO of New Hope Community, participating in our first 5K is personal to me. This event represents far more than a race — it reflects our commitment to health, inclusion, community, and the incredible individuals we support every day. I am participating to stand alongside our staff, families, supporters, and people receiving services as we celebrate wellness, connection, and the strength of our New Hope family. It is also an opportunity to bring our community together around a shared mission: creating opportunities, promoting independence, and building a future filled with hope and possibility for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Here’s how you can help:

• Donate: Any amount makes a difference.

• Share: Please share this page; it helps more than you think.

• Join me: You’re welcome to participate with me at the event!

Thank you for supporting me and for helping build a community where everybody belongs.
