Running Club for Homeless Grows on US East Coast

A running club has become a non-profit organization in Philadelphia. A 27-year-old woman formed the running club. She gave up her high-paying job to focus on the full time job. Her name is Anne Mahlum.

Two years ago, when she was running in the morning, there are a lot of homeless in the park. Then, she smiled and waved to them. At first, they looked at her like she is little bit crazy. But after she kept waving and smiling, they got comfortable with her presence.

I think her activity is great, because she realized me that it is volunteer not only contribute but also giving pleasure to live. I respect her, but it is not need to quite her job.
