Hi everyone,

I'm raising money on behalf of the Palestine Children's Relief Fund. The genocide of Palestinians is still ongoing and famine and violence is still occurring with no end in sight. While there is so much more to do, the least we can do is raise some money for them. This year I'm blessed to be able to use my running as a means of benefit for others. I intend to run this marathon for Palestine. I thought it'd be great to have people donate during the last 10 nights of Ramadan, so that there is even more barakah and reward for these donations. I believe we can get it all done in these last nights of Ramadan, inshallah.

All donations are Zakat Elligible.

Thank you,

Omer

For the sixth consecutive year, members of Team Palestine for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF) will take the 26.2 mile journey in the 2015 Bank of America Chicago Marathon to raise funds for PCRF. PCRF was established in 1991 to help address the medical and humanitarian crisis facing Palestinian youths in the Middle East, and has become the largest provider of free specialized surgical care to all Arab children regardless of race, religion or ethnic background (www.pcrf.net). Since its inception in 2009, Team Palestine has raised over $200,000 for PCRF (www.teampalestine.com). The Bank of America Chicago Marathon is one of the premiere marathons in the world and there is no better way to help thousands of children in the Middle East who are in need of desperate medical attention that is not available to them in their homeland than by running for PCRF. Please support our runners by making a donation to this worthy cause.  Every dollar and every mile saves a child.
