I am putting on my superhero cape and running for a cause!
On May 4th, I'll be running in the 5th Annual 5K/8K Superhero Run to support The Cities Project. Donate here to contribute to my fundraiser or register to run with me at thecitiesproject.org/impact
The Cities Project is a non-profit, research-based mentorship program dedicated to supporting Chicago Public School students and their families. Through research, they want to understand how stressful life experiences affect youth—physically, mentally, and academically. Further, their mission is to provide students with community-oriented intervention programs to lessen the effects of stress. The program provides youth with a positive support system and the tools to manage everyday stressors.
We work with each student from the 4th grade through their first year in college!
Our mentorship program has been making an impact since 2008!
Our mentorship program has been going strong for 11 years!
We are a proud non-profit, or 501(c)3, that exists solely to benefit our community.
