A Race for Latinos Progresando

Edgar Hernandez is one of LP's longest supporters, and on October 13th, he will be running his first marathon. 

 

Generously, Edgar has decided to use this experience not only to challenge himself, but to challenge everyone he knows to step forward and make a difference in the lives of others.

 

Join Edgar's campaign; help him meet his goal, and motivate him to finish the race!
