Team Emma stepping up in the Big Apple
8 August 2023
We’re excited to share that twenty two New Zealanders have signed up for this years New York Marathon with ‘Team Emma’ to raise awareness and funds to combat ovarian cancer.
Emma’s family announced a goal to run the New York marathon in her honour at Emma’s funeral in April 2022. They have bonded over a new found passion for running, putting in the miles together - whatever the weather.
Kent and daughters, Annabel, Francesca and Penny will line up with Team Emma members to run or walk the New York Marathon on November 5th. With memories of Emma powering them on. (James and Nanny B will be cheering them on from the sidewalk.)
Team members are paying their own way so every event dollar raised is donated to New Zealand’s Cure Our Ovarian Cancer.
Thank you for your support and kindness in supporting Team Emma’s fundraising so far.
Your wonderful donation will help fund Ovarian Cancer education to boost early detection and save precious lives.
Team Emma will stride through New York like lives depend on it. Kia kaha marathoners!
