Greetings from Wellesley, MA. On October 11, 2021, I am running the 125th Boston Marathon IN-PERSON in support of Friends of Wellesley METCO, Inc. (FWMI). The energy on race day will be epic and I would love for you to join me in supporting this vital student program and be a part the excitement! Please consider donating to Friends of Wellesley METCO- No amount is too small when supporting developing student minds and a mighty 54 year strong METCO program committed to building and bridging a diverse student community.  As a long term volunteer of the program it is very close to my heart. Friends of Wellesley METCO closely works with Wellesley Public Schools to achieve its strategic plan goals by providing financial and volunteer-time to support all 158 Wellesley METCO students throughout their K-12 years and in their post-graduate academic plans. 

Your donation will support after-school tutoring, summer-reading programs, school-sponsored trips, summer academic enrichment, SAT prep courses, grants for college-bound seniors, and much more. A strong METCO program contributes to successful academic, social, and emotional outcomes for all students in the Wellesley Public Schools. 

If you are local, you are bound to see me running the Marathon route, HONK proudly and show support for our students and community! THANK YOU.
