Welcome to my marathon sponsor page!

I am running in the Jerusalem Marathon as a member of Beth Tfiloh's High School Shalva Team to do my part to support this amazing organization and the Shalva National Crisis Response Center, and I need YOUR support!

This March I will be running as part of Team Shalva in the Jerusalem Marathon! This marathon has been dubbed one of the hardest in the world, so why on earth am I doing it?

The reason is Shalva.

Shalva has been providing transformative care to individuals with disabilities and their family members in the warmest and most loving environment for over 30 years. It supports people with disabilities from infancy through adulthood, this amazing organization provides leading- edge therapies, inclusive educational frameworks, social and recreational activities, employment training, independent living, and respite programs regardless of religion, ethnic background or financial capability!

Shalva went above and beyond after October 7th and stepped up in supporting as many people as they could as fast as they could. They have opened their doors as a National Crisis Response Center welcoming over 200 families from the South providing both the physical safety and emotional support the individuals so desperately need. Shalva is also housing 100 teenage girls and the staff, from a youth-at-risk program on a kibbutz in the south. They are also providing day care programing for evacuated children. Shalva's emergency campaign along with their consistent care of 1000 children with disabilities is inspiring. 

Simply put, Shalva is an incredible place and I would be grateful for your support for Shalva and my goal to train and run the Jerusalem Marathon.

Please help me by donating to this worthy cause. Anything you can give would help me reach my goal, and together we'll be supporting this truly special place.

Thank you in advance for your help and generosity!
