Central Park Half Marathon · 26 February 2023

Devastating earthquakes have killed thousands of people in Turkey and Syria.

Story

Hi friends, I am running the Central Park half marathon in NYC on Sunday February 26, raising funds for earthquake relief in Turkey and Syria. It's the day before my birthday so donate to DEC instead of buying me a gift ;) Donations accepted in USD, GBP, EUR, CAD and AUD.

-----

A series of devastating earthquakes have hit southern Turkey and north-west Syria killing at least 44,000 people and injuring many more. People have been left without shelter in freezing winter conditions. Access to clean water will likely be a challenge, bringing the risk of cholera and other diseases. DEC charities and their local partners are among the first responders, working with locally-led relief efforts to ensure people have food and clean water. People need help now. Please donate.
