Denise Hidalgo & Ariel Hidalgo - Making Strides Against Breast Cancer
Denise's mother / Ariel's grandmother, Sonia Yuspeh, did not survive her battle with this disease, passing away in 1990 when Ariel was just four years old. We are walking in her honor, as part of Ariel's team at the Weill-Cornell Medical Imaging Center. Feel free to donate to our fundraising efforts!
Thank you, Denise and Ariel

CESARE LUCIDO - TEAM JDRF
I'll never forget the day that doctors diagnosed my child Derek with type 1 diabetes (T1D). That day changed our lives forever. And that's why I'm joining Team JDRF—to help JDRF fund research that will progressively remove the impact of T1D from people's lives until it is no longer a threat to anyone. JDRF is the only global organization with a strategic plan to fight T1D.
The onset of T1D has nothing to do with diet or lifestyle, and there is nothing you can do to prevent it. At present, there is also nothing you can do to get rid of it. People with T1D must manage the disease by injecting or pumping insulin several times a day, every day. But insulin is not a cure, and it does not prevent the possibility of serious complications like kidney failure, blindness, and stroke.
Please help me by visiting my personal fundraising page. Helping the 3 million Americans that have T1D has never been simpler.
I want you to know that JDRF uses your gift with great fiscal care. More than 80 percent of JDRF's expenditures directly support research and research-related education. Past JDRF research efforts have helped to significantly improve the care of people with this disease, and have expanded the critical scientific understanding of T1D. JDRF will not rest until T1D is fully conquered.
We greatly appreciate your consideration and support of this worthy cause. I appreciate any and all donations made to my fundraising efforts for JDRF, every dollar comes from donors like you.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please don't hesitate to contact us. Very truly yours, Cesare Lucido

RACHEL McCARTHY: GIRLS ON THE RUN
Hello fellow runners, for this year's New York marathon I am fundraising for Girls on the Run, I'm a board member for this non-profit and if you're not familiar with with Girls on the Run, it is a transformational physical activity based positive youth development program for girls in 3rd-8th grade. Girls on the Run teaches life skills through dynamic, interactive lessons and running games. The program culminates with the girls being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5k running event. The goal of the program is to unleash confidence through accomplishment while establishing a lifetime appreciation of health and fitness. It's mission is to inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experience-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. Our vision is for a world where every girl knows and activates her limitless potential and is free to boldly pursue her dreams.
Over 65% of GOTR NYC’s girls participate in the program at a reduced or no program fee. Your support is what allows us to provide the program to these girls, regardless of their ability to pay for the program.
Thank you in advance for any consideration to supporting my fundraising goals. Best wishes, Rachel
10/21 Breakfast: GOTR NYC is kicking off its celebration of its 10 Year Anniversary with our Breakfast with Kathrine Switzer, scheduled for October 21, 2015 beginning at 8:30 a.m. at the Grand Hall at NYU, located at 238 Thompson Street in Manhattan. Kathrine Switzer is one of running’s most iconic figures and best known as the first woman to challenge the all-male tradition of the Boston Marathon and in 1967 to enter and run the Boston Marathon with a numbered entry. Ms. Switzer also won the 1974 NYC Marathon. Ms. Switzer was inducted into the U.S.A. National Women’s Hall of Fame for breaking barriers and creating positive global social change. Ms. Switzer’s efforts have empowered millions of women through the simple act of running. Stay tuned for more details or please see Rachel at one of the upcoming runs to find out more!

Did you miss out on this year's lottery? Not qualified via 9+1? There are dozens of charity opportunities to run the NYC Marathon in 2015!!
This link is a comprehensive list of NYRR's "gold, silver and bronze" charities as well as hundreds of "community charities" that have access to guaranteed marathon entries if you meet a certain fundraising goal. FYI, NYRR mandates a $2,500 fundraising minimum for community charities and $3,000 for bronze or silver, which may or may not cover the marathon entry fee (that depends on the charity).
FYI: NYRR charges the charity upfront for the marathon spots at nearly $500 each... and that charge does not include the marathon entry fee and administrative costs, which must be covered in addition to the funds raised, by either the charity or the runner. In clicking through to a number of sites at various levels, it seems that even most community charities have fundraising goals of $3,000, $3,500 and $4,000 or more for the NYC Marathon.
Note that Galloway NYC will publish members' fundraising links on our website, and share it via the group email to help you achieve your objective. In the past we have also posted flyers from random charities that happened to email us their information; however, since Galloway NYC does not wish to implicitly or explicitly promote any particular charity, we now only post links to support our members in their running and fundraising goals.
