Meet Megan:

.

Fifteen years ago, I started training for my first race, and now, 25 marathons later, I'm on the brink of something truly special: my first marathon since welcoming my son Niko into the world. Only, this year, it isn't just about running the race; it's about sharing my love for running with him and passing on a legacy of determination and service to others. My journey as a PT started with a mission to serve, volunteering for six months in Ghana, so I'm thrilled to join forces with Therapists Beyond Borders for the NYC Marathon, continuing my commitment to making a difference.

Meet TBB:

Therapists Beyond Borders trains therapists, families, and caregivers of individuals with disabilities in under-resourced communities around the world. Disability legislation and rehabilitation programs are commonly under-resourced, especially in developing countries. As a result, millions of people who require therapy do not receive adequate treatment. Our goal: extend the privilege of advanced clinical training to therapists, families, and caregivers in countries with underfunded healthcare systems.

Our mission is to foster self-sustaining, locally run therapy education programs that build community capacity to provide skillful care for their most vulnerable members. Our vision is a world where individuals of all abilities can reach their own unique potential, and where all communities, despite the unequal distribution of global resources, still have the capacity to care for their own.
