Welcome to my fundraising page! I’m running the 2026 Philadelphia Half Marathon to support an amazing organization: the Hetrick-Martin Institute. We find ourselves in a time when LGBTQ+ rights are being challenged across the United States. Organizations like Hetrick-Martin create real, meaningful change for some of our most vulnerable community members: LGBTQ+ youth.

Any amount you can contribute to support this great cause is appreciated!

About the charity

At Hetrick-Martin Institute, we envision a world where every young person, regardless of sexual orientation or identity, can thrive in a nurturing and empowering environment. Our mission is to provide a sanctuary of hope and opportunity for LGBTQIA+ youth aged 13 to 24 and their families. Through our pioneering programs and direct services, we foster healthy development and inspire these incredible young individuals to achieve their full potential. By donating today, you join us in championing a future where courage, acceptance, and love prevail. Let's stand together to build a brighter tomorrow for these extraordinary youth.
