Hello friends and family!

We are excited to announce that we will be joining Team RISE for the Chicago Marathon in October 2020! Robin had the opportunity to travel to Angola with RISE International in 2009. That trip cemented her passion for global affairs, social impact, and meaningful international development. We believe that education is the key to change! We want to support RISE in their important commitment to bring the opportunity to receive an education to thousands of children in Angola. Since 2003, they have built 183 schools, with several currently under construction, providing the opportunity for education to over 130,000 children each year. 

This will be our FIRST full marathon. We are a little nervous, but very excited to take on this incredible challenge together. We need your help to reach our fundraising goal! If you would like to join us in empowering children through education, we encourage you to donate to RISE through this page. Any donation amount is warmly welcomed and greatly appreciated! Thank you so much for your support!  <3 

Hugs,

Robin & Manfred
