First of all, thank you for visiting my page and
taking some time to make a donation to the Children of Peru
Foundation. Before making the donation, please take a moment to
read the lines below so you understand why I decided to run this NYC
Half Marathon and why this initiative is so important to me. By
making a donation, you will be running on March 21st with me: I will
run for you all; what is giving me the energy to train and made me
decide to sign up to it, is to know that we will all be helping the
Children of Peru Foundation create a better present and
future for the children of Peru!
The Children of Peru Foundation:
Was founded in 2006 in New York by Edouard & Zaralina Ruelle as a
not-for-profit organization. It obtained the Federal 501(c)3 tax
exempt status in the same year. It is dedicated to raise funds to
help finance different non-governmental organizations working in
Peru trying to make a difference for poor children. Check the
website for more info.
Why am I running this NYC Half Marathon:
I was born and raised in Lima, Peru and I now know that I was lucky
to have been born in a family that would and could give me all I
needed to have a happy childhood: I am the smiley girl on the
picture! My grandma, sister and two cousins are there with me. I
vividly remember (I was still a child) times when we would save food
for the children that, some time after lunch time, would knock on
our door asking for it and stories like this one, I could tell you a
lot…. So, wanting to do something for my country and especially for
the little children I know, need our help, is intrinsic to me – this
is my first half marathon and I could not think of a better reason
to embark on this adventure, than to do it for such a remarkable
cause. Now, let’s donate and be happy: we will make some kids
very happy!!
I have set myself a fundraising goal of $1,000,
which I need to give to the foundation by March 18th:
