Menashe Uhr's campaign
Message to sponsors
Thank you for supporting my campaign! For years, I have "watched" RabbisCanRun from afar, wanting to take on the challenge to run and improve my health but feeling unable to make the intense commitment required to participate. This year I remembered, "If not now, when?" I took the jump and committed to run 10k, which is about 9.5k longer than I can currently run. With the help of Hashem, and the fantastic training and support group of RabbisCanRun, I will reach my goal. Will you help?
Besides the commitment to run, I've committed to raise $3,000 for Olami, an outstanding organization I have tremendous gratitude towards. Olami funded and ran the two Rabbi/Outreach training programs, Ner Le'elef and Kollel Etz Pri, that I attended in Jerusalem, preparing me to get out there and help the Jewish people come closer to Hashem. There, my Rebbe, R' Peretz Segal, taught me that "The area that you most resist working on is most likely the area you need to work on most, and the area you will benefit the most from working on." Getting healthier and running easily qualifies as such an area for me, and I'm excited for the results of embracing this challenge head-on.
I currently live in Jacksonville, Florida, where I run Outreach programming for the Jacksonville Community Kollel, and work and write Torah content for Thank You Hashem / TYH Torah.
By supporting Olami through my campaign, you are helping me reach my personal health goals, and showing the world that—contrary to popular belief—Rabbis CAN Run! But even more importantly, you are helping tens of thousands of Jews around the world connect with their heritage, finding faith and connection through the hundreds of organizations worldwide under Olami.
Thank you for your consideration!
