On March 21, 2026, I’ll be running the Marine Corps 17.75K—a date that carries deep meaning for my family. This day marks 7 years since I lost my son and 10 years since the school accident that changed our lives forever.

This year, I’m choosing to turn that weight into purpose.

I’m raising funds through Shield of Hope in partnership with Lions in Motion to support families, kids, and community causes that need real help—right now. Your donation helps us expand impact, meet urgent needs, and empower people who feel stuck, unseen, or overwhelmed.

Donation Thank-You Gifts

$100 Donation — Receive a Special Collaboration T-Shirt (Shield of Hope x Lions in Motion)
$200+ Donation — Receive a One-of-a-Kind Collaboration Racing Shirt (Shield of Hope x Lions in Motion)

All donations are tax deductible, and the funds raised directly support both Shield of Hope causes and Lions in Motion causes.

The time is now. Not tomorrow. Not the next day. The time is now.

Thank you for standing with me—and for helping us turn pain into purpose.

*Shirt designs may vary slightly in final production.*
