She did it!!!

NEIP friend and colleague Lisa Kavanaugh braved the harsh winds and elements this weekend as she ran the New York City Marathon! Lisa had been training around the clock in the months leading up to her big run, and her hard work paid off as she finished her very first marathon with an outstanding time of 4:25:57!

Lisa’s effort has also helped the New England Innocence Project raise nearly $8000 in our Running for Innocence campaign! These donations will go a long way towards helping NEIP to prove the innocence of those who have been wrongfully convicted in the New England area. We at NEIP would like to thank all of you who have donated, and shared our story. Without your generosity, we could not accomplish our mission, and could not give hope to the innocent men and women who are currently serving time for crimes they have not committed.

It is not too late to contribute to our campaign! We are still accepting donations and contributions of all kinds to help towards our goal. Please visit our campaign at www.indiegogo.com/projects/running-for-innocence and email us at rfi@newenglandinnocence.org if you are interested in joining us for future Running for Innocence events!
