Completing a marathon is a personal challenge for me, but I’m not in this for the glory. I’m running for something way more important: to raise awareness and critical funds for Chai Lifeline, a wonderful organization dedicated to helping very sick children and their families. When I initially signed up to run, I was on the waiting list to join the team. From the time I was placed on the list till when I received the call to join, a very dear student and neighbor of mine, Tzipora, was diagnosed with cancer. I had the opportunity to see firsthand the beautiful work that Chai Lifeline does not only for these children but also for their families and the communities in which they live.

Throughout the year, Chai Lifeline provides emotional, social, and financial assistance to more than 6,000 children and their families. Whether it’s counseling, case management, crisis and trauma intervention, meals delivered to hospitals and homes, transportation to medical appointments, insurance advocacy, i-Shine afterschool programming, Big Brothers and Sisters, or its medically-supervised Simcha summer camps, Chai Lifeline’s innovative services help families navigate the complexities of childhood illness and restore joy and happiness.

Training is not easy, but neither is dealing with illness. If the children of Chai Lifeline can fight each day, if they can push themselves through hospital stays and treatments, I can do this for them. But I can't do this without your support. I need your help to raise as much money as possible for these kids. I’ve set a challenging goal for myself to raise $6,000 in support of Chai Lifeline. Your generous donation will help me move closer to my goal and make a difference in the lives of so many sick children. Let's do this together! 

Best - Jacqueline
