Rena Repenning's NYC Marathon Fundraiser
Join me in supporting Breakthrough New York as I raise funds to guide students to and through college for the TCS New York City Marathon!
Why I'm Running for Breakthrough New York
This November, I'll be running the TCS New York City Marathon in support of Breakthrough New York (BTNY).
I began my journey with BTNY as a volunteer, and my involvement has only expanded since. Today, I’m proud to serve as a College Mentor, working directly with BTNY scholars as they navigate one of the most transformative periods of their lives. Through this role, I’ve had the opportunity to see firsthand the impact that consistent support, mentorship, and belief can have on students as they pursue college and beyond.
Breakthrough New York provides academic enrichment, advising, and mentorship to talented students from low-income backgrounds, supporting them from middle school all the way through college graduation. As a mentor, I’ve seen how this long-term investment empowers students not just to get to college, but to thrive once they’re there.
Running the New York City Marathon is my way of giving back to a community that has inspired me and continues to change lives every day. Every mile I run and every dollar raised helps ensure that BTNY scholars have the resources they need to achieve their goals.
Thank you so much for supporting my run and for investing in the future of Breakthrough New York scholars!
