Team Shahid is a 501(c) (3) public charity organization. All donations are tax-exempt.
At the age of 35, Shahid A. Burns died from the treatment of DSRCT, a rare form of sarcoma cancer. Shahid was a natural leader and throughout his life, he motivated people to be their best. In Shahid’s memory his siblings created Team Shahid to motivate people to take on the fulfilling challenge of running a half marathon. Team Shahid’s goal is improve our bodies and raise money to help young scholars improve their minds.
Team Shahid is determined to recruit at least 150 people to run in the Miami Half Marathon. We chose the Miami Marathon because Shahid loved to run; he also loved the tropical climate and culture of Miami. Even in his last days, Shahid pulled himself out of bed to walk around his neighborhood. Shahid referred to himself as a “Fighting soul”. Team Shahid continues his fight.
