Hi! My name is Natasha, and I'm running the NYC Marathon to raise funds and awareness for ALS United - a nonprofit dedicated to advancing research and supporting individuals living with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), a disease that currently has no cure.

I am running this race in memory of my mom, Sonia Kanitkar, who was diagnosed with ALS in 2020 and was relieved of her battle a year later. Her strength and kindness touched so many people and continue to inspire me every day. I feel incredibly privileged to have the opportunity to run this race in her honor and support a cause that means so much to me.

While donations are deeply appreciated, simply sharing this link also helps spread awareness and makes a meaningful difference.

Thank you so much for your support :)
