Run For Congo Women

As R and I have begun to research more about Congo we have been so blessed to find people across the world working together to bring relief and healing to a forgotten nation. We found out about an organization, Women for Women International that supports the efforts of Run For Congo Women. It gives people like you and me the opportunity to support women and families in Congo through a variety of avenues. I was SO excited to learn there was a Run for Congo 5K run/walk in NYC so Ramon and I planned to attend in support of these amazing Congolese women. As we walked over to the registration booth I was COMPLETELY SHOCKED to find my BFF, C and her fiance J standing there waiting for us. R was in on the secret but I was beyond surprised to have them join us for this awesome event. It's not ever day you have friends wake up before the sun to join you for a run. This was the first of many events R and I plan on being apart of in support of a nation that has become our life long passion and we couldn't have been happier that they were there to support us.
