As the newest teammate at HQ, I would like to encourage all my friends and colleagues to give a $20 donation to @19ychen and @whycz3. These stunning journalists are each raising $5,000 to support AAJA programs and are running all 26.2 miles of the NYC marathon next month

Won my age group today at the Potomac River Half Marathon. Training for NYC Marathon is paying off. It is less than 30 days away and I’m still $430 short of my $5,000 goal. Will you donate $20 to help me reach it? fundraisers.hakuapp.com/fund…
