Orange Rose Marathon Team
Our Vice President Anthony Cataldo is running the TCS London Marathon in April 2024! Please visit his marathon page and help him reach his goal!
A note from our Vice President:
On April 21st I will be running the London Marathon in honor of my sister Ersilia. I am teaming up with Refuge, a domestic violence charity organization based in London. I am honored to be a part of this team made up of many survivors of domestic violence. This will be my sixth and final marathon major to complete my challenge and receive the sixth star medal in memory of my sister Ersilia.
All proceeds will go to the Orange Rose Foundation; a 501(c)3 charity focusing on supporting organizations that assist victims of domestic violence. The Orange Rose, Ersilia’s favorite flower, signifies Ersilia’s beauty, strength, passion, excitement, and love for her family and friends. Ersilia was committed to making a difference in people’s lives by volunteering her time to ones in need. We want to continue Ersilia's mission.
Thank you for your support!
