THE STORY:
Junior Achievement of New York, Inc. wrote -
When you run those 26.2 miles, you are not only crossing the finish line for yourself, but for the 80,000+ NYC, Long Island, and Lower Hudson Valley students served by our K-12 financial literacy, work-force readiness, and entrepreneurship education programs. Your support will help young people prepare themselves for success in higher education, in their future careers, and in life.
Like you, we believe running a marathon is a great metaphor for life, because you get out of it what you put into it. When you run for Team JA New York in one of the world’s most inspiring races through the heart of NYC’s five boroughs, you are helping us give young people the best chance at winning in life. Thank you for providing us with your support and your passion to help kids live up to their potential – we will be supporting and rooting for you every step of the way!
