A fundraising campaign by
Jacqueline Courtesis
It was such a great experience to run the marathon and raise money for the Italian American Sports Foundation. My family is all from Italy and it made this run extra special.
IASF Runner Profile
Hi Friends! It is Jackie Courtesis and I am beyond excited to announce that I am running the NYC Marathon with the Italian American Sports Foundation. As a 2nd generation Italian American and a New Yorker, there is no better organization to run for, nor no better city to run my first marathon in!
The Italian American Sports Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising funds to allow individuals with disabilities the opportunity to acquire technological aids (basketball wheelchairs, prosthetics, etc.) so that the individuals may fulfill their dreams of participating in athletics.
The IASF promotes paralympic sports in major Italian cities making them more accessible. If you have the means, please help me raise the money to support such an amazing organization, and If not able please consider sharing this link with others!
Let’s raise this money & run this marathon!!! I couldn’t do it without all of you :)

I’ve been running for about 15 years. I’ve run five marathons including Fort Lauderdale, Chicago and Marine Corps. I have have always wanted to run the New York City Marathon, but as most runners know, it can be difficult to get in.

This year I have the opportunity to run my first marathon in NYC supporting IASF! I strongly believe an active lifestyle (especially running!) is directly correlated to your health and happiness. I am passionate about fitness and I have completed the Chicago Rock and Roll half marathon.

Ciao! If you are reading this it is because you want to make a difference and together we can. The funds raised here for the Italian American Sport Foundation will go toward the purchase of prosthetic limbs for young athletes who otherwise would not be able to train and compete.
