Support my efforts as part of Team OLA 2025!

I'm running the 2025 Bank of America Chicago to support Mission of Our Lady of the Angels! 

Mission of Our Lady of the Angels exists to provide material and spiritual support to W. Humboldt Park, Chicago- one of the most challenged neighborhoods in the US. The Mission feeds about 4400 families a month, provides additional material and pastoral support to families, youth, and senior citizens, and, most importantly, brings the love of Christ to a neighborhood desperately in need of hope. More info about the Mission at www.missionola.com.

Funds raised from Team OLA 2025 will be used to:

(1) Help the Mission expand its food pantry + other material distributions

-Mission of Our Lady of the Angels currently serves about 4400 families a month- and growing!

-Help the Mission continue to expand and improve this outreach. 

(2) Help the Mission renovate an additional convent for more sisters!

-We need a separate convent for our young sisters in formation

-This renovation project is essential to the future expansion of our material and spiritual outreach. Additional details about the project will be released once they are available!

Donate today to be part of the miracle that is TEAM OLA!

The Mission is a 501(c)(3) and relies entirely on the donations of private donors.

Race day was chaotic as was the run itself! I hadn't expected to see anyone I knew apart from fellow runners, the Franciscans, and select members of the cheer team. During the race, and, at round mile 5, I received an unexpected phone call which, I answered mid run, and, to an even bigger surprise, was my friend Nick. I'd known him since kindergarten, and, since we graduated high school, we rarely see each other. I was excited to hear that I would be seeing him towards the end of the race! Dazed, exhausted, and in pain at the finish line, he came up to congratulate me on completing the marathon as a volunteer, of all people!
