Tina Gambino passed away in November 2004, but thirteen years later her legacy still lives on. Through the Tina Shaina Gambino Memorial Foundation, Gambino is never forgotten.
The foundation provides the scholarships to Pleasantville High School students and set up events such as the Tina’s 5K Run/Walk, which took place for the seventh time on October 28.
The run was created by Michael Bloom, who was babysat by Gambino. He was five when she passed away.
The run begins at Pleasantville High School. The video below provides a brief summary of the route the runners will take for the seventh annual Tina Gambino 5K Run/Walk.
