Life can change in a split second. The ability to walk and use our limbs is so automatic that we never think about it. Imagine, in just one moment of time, paralysis happens and everything changes forever. Make your run in the Chicago Marathon more meaningful, and run for those who can’t!

Our runners receive:
-Fund Raising Support
-Social Media Support
- T-Shirt
-Access to wheelchair tents near the Start & Finish Line
  

Since we became a marathon charity, our runners have raised more than $100,000! These contributions aid with:

Further developing and improving our resource center for people whose lives are affected by paralysis
 

Organizing peer counseling and support programs
 

Addressing education programs for healthcare providers working with individuals with spinal cord injury as well as consumers with spinal cord injury and their families/friends
 

Educating school students about precautionary measures that will reduce risk of brain and spinal cord injuries
