GALA COMMUNITY IMPACT AWARD
Run For Their Lives
Run for Their Lives Westchester was part of the vital global movement Run for Their Lives (R4TL), uniting communities around the world in a powerful show of solidarity and hope. Each week, for 100 consecutive Sunday mornings, community members from all parts of Westchester County walked and ran to raise awareness and advocate for the safe return of all hostages—men, women, babies, and children—taken to Gaza by Hamas.
Our local group in Westchester stood together with thousands of people across the globe, on five continents and more than 300 communities, using every step to amplify a simple, urgent message: ‘Bring Them Home Now’. R4TL continued to run for their freedom, for their families, and for their lives until all the living hostages were released.
The presentation to R4TL will be accepted by David Malchman, who has led the Westchester group since inception.
THANK YOU TO OUR GENEROUS SUPPORTERS
