Hi everyone!! 

I’m BACK! Thank you for visiting my page! I am so excited to share that I will be running the NYC marathon (again!!!) this November. This will be my 2nd NYC marathon ever, and I cannot wait to run in support of Shaare Zedek. 

Shaare Zedek is a medical center in Jerusalem that treats more than 1.2 million people each year, including over 65,000 children! The Hospital delivers more than 22,000 babies a year, which is more than triple the number of babies born in most hospitals. It is also a Level 1 Trauma Unit, making it Jerusalem’s most active Trauma and Emergency Center. Shaare Zedek has also served the majority of patients injured in the recent terror attacks, and is currently expanding its Emergency Department to save the lives of so many in Jerusalem and the surrounding areas.

I first learned about Shaare Zedek while in Israel on a high school volunteering trip (shout out to the Frisch Mish!!). We visited the hospital and donated toys and dolls to its youngest patients. I was so happy to put even a brief smile on the little kids’ faces, and am eager to do so again this November by reppin’ the amazing organization in the streets of NYC.

Donations of any amount and/or sharing this page are all very appreciated. 

THANK U for your support!!!

xoxo,
Amanda

PS – Help me raise an extra $1,000 above my goal & I’ll get baby Boaz (who will then be 11 months!) to cross the finish line with me!!!
