| Be a #BoMFHero this holiday season |
After a few months in our program, Remmy entered back in the workforce with a full-time job in HVAC! He also moved into his own apartment and keeps running with Back on My Feet a priority, even as an alumni member. For the past several months, Remmy trained with BoMF and Luke's Locker, and successfully finished his first half-marathon at this year's Dallas Marathon.
You can be a hero by helping others like Remmy who are on their journey - a journey towards a healthier life, towards securing employment, towards finding a place to call home. A
donation this holiday season will change the direction of an individual's life forever.

Member and Volunteer Spotlight
|
|
This month, we're spotlighting our amazing volunteer-based Dallas Marathon relay teams!
In addition to waking up early to run with our members, our volunteers help us out with our events and several have spent the past few months training with our members for this year's Dallas Marathon! In fact, our volunteers and members made up three relay teams and one of those teams even finished sixth out of 116 teams! Additionally, one BoMF alumnus ran his very first full marathon, another alumnus ran his first half marathon and one member ran his first half marathon, too! None of this would be possible without our volunteers, so we thank each and every one of you for continuing to selflessly donate your time and energy to our program! We love you!
