Team AMP and Volunteers after the 2014 ASICS LA Marathon (not all pictured)

Congratulations to all 24 Team AMP runners for completing the 2014 ASICS LA MARATHON on March 9th!

Thank you to all of the volunteers who supported us throughout the race. A BIG thank you to all the donors who helped make this possible. A special shout out to our coaches Robert, Euri and Jack for training us and being there on that hot day!

Together, Team AMP members raised over $20,000 for AADAP’s programs- we are truly grateful for all the generous donors.

Our training season for the 2015 LA Marathon, March 15th will begin in October. If you are interested in joining, please contact Paulina at (323) 293-6284 or email amp@aadapinc.org.

For a limited time, Team AMP is saying “THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT” with an exclusive gift generously donated by Sanrio.

See the flyer below on details for our fundraiser ending Friday, January 31st. 2014.

Team AMP has training runs every Tuesday at 6:30pm and we invite anyone to join us! We will be alternating between 2 locations: Ruben Ingold Parkway, and the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook.
