Story

Hello, and thank you for visiting my fundraising page for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. My name is Mason, and I'm training to run the London Marathon in April 2023 to support this incredible cause. Since July 2022, I've been dedicated to my training and have found it to be an incredibly fulfilling experience that has changed my life. My goal is to finish the marathon in under 3 hours and 30 minutes, and I believe I can achieve this with the help of the Make-A-Wish community.

The reason why I'm raising money for Make-A-Wish is to honour the memory of my Dad, who passed away from cancer in 2021. He was always a great supporter of children's charities and instilled in me the importance of giving back to those who are less fortunate. Make-A-Wish is a charity that grants life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses, and I believe every child deserves to believe in the power of their dreams.

I'm grateful to say that I've already collected $7,500 in donations for this marathon, and these funds have already been sent to Make-A-Wish. However, I'm not stopping there - every additional penny I raise will go towards granting children's wishes and giving them a reason to hope for the future.

I hope you'll consider supporting me by donating to Make-A-Wish. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of these children and their families. Thank you for your generosity and support.
