Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm raising money for the British Heart Foundation and I'd be so grateful for your support. The London marathon will mark my 22nd marathon and 4th world marathon major. In support of prior marathons, I have fundraised over $7k for another organization, PAWS Chicago, which is a no-kill animal shelter that provides medical care, food and shelter to the homeless pets of Chicago. I’m looking forward to continuing my fundraising efforts with another great organization like the British Heart Foundation in memory of my grammy who recently passed away from a stroke at the age of 100.
The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist, but every pound helps so please give what you can to help me hit my target of £5000. Thanks!
