This January, I will be running in the Miami Half-Marathon with Team Lifeline to benefit children with cancer, disabilities, and other serious medical conditions.
I am privileged to be a running participant of Team Jacob, organized by a truly amazing family and named for one of the most resilient children I have ever known. I have a strong personal connection to Team Jacob. Jacob is a 12 year-old boy challenged with Short Bowel Syndrome, a condition in which one’s body is unable to absorb enough nutrients from the foods they eat due to insufficient small intestine. I’Y’H, Jacob will be a Bar Mitzvah this year and I am running for his team to help him and his amazing family give back to Chai Lifeline which has always been a part of his life.
Every dollar I raise and every mile I run will benefit Chai Lifeline, an international children’s health support network that provides critical year-round programs and services to nearly 6,000 families confronting pediatric illness.
While running all those miles will be challenging, I am excited to help raise awareness and funds for such an important and worthy cause.
My goal is to raise $12,500, but I need your help. Every donation is 100% tax deductible. Please join me in supporting this important organization by contributing to my personal runner page.
Together, we can make a difference.
Thank you for your support! Ira "Srulie" Ehrenberg
