WOW! Thank you for the recognition, I’m truly grateful and honored. Thanks for always supporting me and making sure I never lack in my training. This is an extra motivation for me to work hard and bring home a Gold medal at the next Olympics. Again I’m very very grateful.

Thank you so much! I feel very grateful to have everyone at the Foundation as part of my support team. The Foundation has been so generous to the developing athletes in this sport! It has made a great difference in the way I am able to train, and I hope to be exactly where I need to be come next year!
Shannon Osika – 1500m
It was so special getting to participate in the USATF Foundation Run With US! program. The student athletes from the Santa Margarita High School cross country team asked great questions and I was happy that I was able to share some of my insight. Thank you to USATF Foundation for connecting me to these great kids!

We thank you all for your support of our program, it's an amazing feeling to have an organization such as yours believe in our mission. Supporting our low-income families in Baltimore is the most important and fulfilling aspect of our program. We are so grateful for the work you all do in helping sustained youth track and field. Thank you again.
