Thank you for visiting. The Friendship Circle exists to bring happiness and companionship to children and young adults with special needs, by celebrating their individuality, as well as bringing energy, support, and peace of mind to their families. Friendship Circle chapters in local communities create meaningful relationships and friendships between teen volunteers and children with special needs, increasing confidence, igniting dreams, and redefining worldviews for both parties.

It's been about 10yrs since I ran my last full marathon and as I enter this next decade of life, I wanted to set some goals that would push me and help others. For the first time, I am entering a race on a fundraiser entry and I am excited to join Team Friendship for the NYC Marathon 2024.

I appreciate your support in whatever way you are able as I start on this journey to 4th in 40! (not great odds if you are on a football field... but looking GREAT for this gal!)

I am excited for the opportunity to run with this group, and help raise support for such an amazing organization. I appreciate your consideration in helping me reach my goal! Together we can make a difference! Best - Lindsey
