The little guy in my photo is Mr. Ollie (or Olliebear, as he is more often called). He was found bleeding on the Chicago streets a few years ago. He was taken to a shelter, where he stayed a few weeks until his last day - his ‘kill’ day. My twin sister offered to foster him, which turned into a welcomed foster fail. He is now part of the extended family.

Every year, I try to run at least one marathon to support causes close to heart. Come April 23, 2023, I will be taking to the London streets, along with other Team PAWS runners, to raise much needed funds for animals like Ollie.

PAWS is dedicated to building No Kill communities where all healthy and treatable pets are saved.

Please consider supporting me by making a donation and helping PAWS provide vital medical care, food and shelter to thousands of homeless pets this year.

My goal is to raise $4000 by end of January, and a total of $8500 by March 2023. It will be my honor to run on your behalf and in honor of all puppies and kitties in need of support. Every $1 counts.

Thank you for your support!
