It’s never too late. Ted Jindrich started running at age 57, and, a little over ten years later, he has run 24 marathons.
This year, he’s not running for a medal, but for our neighbors. Ted and his friends are running the entire Chicago Lakefront and fundraising for Cornerstone Community Outreach. Give today, support Ted and his friends as they run from Evanston to Indiana, and fund the work being done to change the lives of Chicagoans experiencing homelessness.

Ted says, “This year on May 2nd friends and I will be running all 26 plus miles of the Chicago Lakefront (Indiana to Evanston) to raise money for Cornerstone Community Outreach. CCO is a homeless shelter that houses families of all types, as well as single men and women. CCO not only provides a roof over ones head but also the support services to help people get permanent housing. Please support my running friends and I as we take on this challenge. And please spread the word to others who might contribute. My goal is to raise $10,000. I never would have thought that at 68 years old I would be running marathons.”
