Man from New Orleans takes many steps to raise money.

Kwame Terra, a resident of New Orleans, has made headlines for his incredible achievement of taking 2 million steps in just 30 days. According to WGNO, this feat has earned him a spot in the International Book of Records for setting an unofficial world record. It's no surprise that Terra has been dubbed "The Big Stepper" considering that he averaged a staggering 66,667 steps per day, covering a total of 35 miles daily.

But this challenge was not just a personal accomplishment for Terra. As a former cross country runner for Xavier University and a current coach at an HBCU, he is no stranger to pushing his physical limits. However, his recent endeavor served a greater purpose - to raise awareness about health disparities in Black communities. As the founder and CEO of bEHR Health, Terra hopes to use this challenge to fund the expansion of his health-focused initiatives and raise $2 million.

Through the bEHR Health app, Terra aims to empower individuals by providing them with a personalized health score, connecting them with culturally competent healthcare providers, and offering resources tailored to the specific needs of Black communities. This initiative addresses critical issues such as lower life expectancy, higher rates of chronic diseases, and limited access to quality healthcare among Black Americans.

Terra's journey has caught the attention and support of various organizations and individuals who recognize the importance of addressing health inequities. His commitment to this cause is a powerful example of how personal challenges can be used to drive social change and improve community well-being. Despite the physical toll, Terra believes that it was all worth it as it has aided in his personal growth.

Reflecting on his experience, Terra shared, "Sometimes we need to do something we've never done to become something that we've never been." For those interested in supporting his mission or learning more about bEHR Health, there are opportunities to donate and find more information on the official GoFundMe page.

In the spirit of National Running Day, it's inspiring to see how Terra's passion for running has evolved into a powerful platform for promoting health equity in Black communities. Let's celebrate his remarkable achievement and support his mission to make a positive impact on people's lives.
