💪 About Santiago
- Warrior Spirit: We call Santi a warrior for a reason! Because the term extends far beyond physical combat. Warriors exemplify courage, resilience, and determination. THAT IS SANTI!!
- Little Fighter: Santi is just 16 months old and has already faced more challenges than most of us will in a lifetime. He's battling advanced heart failure and is now waiting for a life-saving heart transplant at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.
- Family Struggles: Right now, his dad has temporarily relocated to Cincinnati to be near the hospital. The family’s deepest wish is to be together during this fight—but the heavy expenses, big changes, and long road ahead make that incredibly difficult.
- Your Impact: Every step you take in this 5K helps keep their family together while Santi fights for his life. Your participation, donation, or even just sharing their story makes a huge difference.
