I am thrilled to share that I’m running the Boston Marathon- a life long dream-but even more so that I have the opportunity to be a part of the Miles for Miracle team raising money for Boston Children’s Hospital. Our son Varun, now 5 years old, had life saving care at Boston Children’s when he was born and continues to follow with an amazing team through the Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia clinic. We are eternally grateful for the incredible care he and our family received before his birth and then during an extensive hospital course, and that he continues to thrive and bring so much joy to all around him. He wants to run the marathon too--but his first goal is to help out at a hydration station!
I am forever committed to supporting Boston Children's and the other kids and families who receive care there--and I am excited to invite my friends, family, colleagues and more to contribute to a cause that is near and dear to me, and invaluable to so so many more.
Every dollar I raise funds the very best medical care, breakthrough research and vital support services for sick kids and their families. Your gift will:
- help children from your town and across the world get a second chance at life;
- give kids battling the most complex diseases care they can't find anywhere else;
- fuel 3,000+ researchers working to develop new treatments and cures;
- support patient programs, like music and art therapy, to let kids be kids, even during long hospital stays;
- help patient families in crisis with urgent needs, such as food, clothing and housing;
- deliver the most compassionate, leading-edge care to every child who needs it.
Please support my fundraising and help the incredible kids and their families at Boston Children's Hospital.
