Marathon runner and humanitarian Timothy Higgins strives to improve people’s lives through charitable work, one mile at a time. In 2006, the native New Yorker ran in the ING New York City Marathon and helped raise more than $10 million for Team for Kids, a group that generates money for projects that fight childhood obesity. A year later, he ran in the Bank of America Chicago Marathon, and a month later he entered the ING New York City Marathon to support Race with Purpose, another charity focused on children’s health. Timothy Higgins has donated to a score of other charitable organizations, including St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, American Red Cross, and Trocaire House.
