The Mongol Derby

Genghis Khan’s horse messenger system once stretched across half the planet. With the goal of re-creating that system the Mongol Derby, at 1000km (621 miles), is the world’s longest and toughest horse race. A sheer test of will power (and plenty of luck) will get me across the finish line.

Are you ready to take the next step with me?

Leveraging this race as in impetus for change in my own life, I want to extend that to my community.

I’m fundraising to help support women in our community with pre & post-natal mental health access and resources. Achieving a fundraising goal of $50,000 depends on everyone! Whether you’re comfortable contributing money to the initiative, becoming a corporate sponsor, or donating in-kind to help achieve this goal, I need you on my team!
