On October 11, I'll be running the 2026 Bank of America Chicago Marathon with Team Boys & Girls Clubs of Chicago (BGCC)!

As I train to run 26.2 miles, I'm also raising critical funds for Team BGCC to help ensure all of Chicago's children and teens have the support and resources they need to be successful. 

In addition to offering a safe place to go, caring adult mentors and healthy meals, BGCC’s programs build a strong foundation for youth by developing vital social, emotional, and cognitive skills.

Places like Boys & Girls Clubs matter now more than ever. With your help, we can ensure kids continue to have a Club they can rely on, today and in the months and years ahead. 

Please join me in supporting these incredible young people by making a gift today! 

About Boys & Girls Clubs of Chicago
Serving families since 1902, Boys & Girls Clubs of Chicago (BGCC) is the city's largest and longest-serving youth development organization dedicated to providing safe spaces for area kids and teens. BGCC uses a comprehensive blend of mentoring and programming to provide youth ages 5 to 20+ the tools they need to become well-rounded and successful adults. Filling the out-of-school hours, which can be the most dangerous for young people, BGCC offers academic, social, and leadership activities for students in some of Chicago’s most underserved neighborhoods. Youth are matched with professional adult mentors, giving kids a safe place to learn, grow, and succeed.
