My name is Samantha Fletcher, and I’m reaching out to you with a cause that is incredibly close to my heart. For years, I’ve been involved in supporting survivors of domestic violence, and I’ve seen firsthand the courage it takes to break free from such a painful situation. This year, I’ve decided to take action in a way that challenges me both physically and emotionally I’m running a marathon to raise funds for Freedom House, a charity dedicated to providing refuge and support for those escaping domestic violence.
The marathon is set for December in Dublin, Ireland, a city known for its resilience and strong community spirit. This race is not just about pushing my physical limits; it’s about standing in solidarity with those who have endured unimaginable hardships and helping to provide them with a fresh start.
Domestic violence is a silent epidemic that affects millions of people, often leaving them isolated and vulnerable. Freedom House offers a lifeline, providing safe housing, counseling, legal assistance, and the support needed to rebuild lives. But they can’t do it alone—they need our help.
Every step I take in this marathon is dedicated to the survivors who are taking their own brave steps toward a life free from fear. I’m asking you to join me in supporting Freedom House. Your donation, no matter the size, can make a significant difference in someone’s life. It can provide a night of safe shelter, access to counseling services, or even the resources needed to start a new chapter.
This marathon is more than just a race; it’s a symbol of hope, resilience, and the possibility of a brighter future for those who have been affected by domestic violence. Please consider supporting this cause and helping me reach my fundraising goal. Together, we can provide the support that survivors need to reclaim their lives.
