Kara's WWF fundraising page

Everyone who knows me knows that in addition to running and cycling, I have a borderline obsession (ok maybe understating it) with animals, particularly koalas (adorableness!) and big cats.  So when I decided to run the 2022 Chicago Marathon for charity, fundraising for the World Wildlife Foundation seemed an obvious choice.

Deforestation, climate change, water scarcity, and illegal wildlife trade are some of the threats facing our planet today—and no one person or group can tackle them alone.  But if we work together, we can take on anything. That’s why every day, WWF works in unity with many people, partners, and institutions to achieve lasting conservation solutions. 

You can be part of those solutions. You can protect the very things that keep us alive: our forests, our oceans, our fresh water, our wildlife, our energy supply, our food supply.  

Your donation today will help make it possible to protect the future of nature.

Thank you for giving what you can.
