Why I care
My body has been doing some pretty amazing things for the last five years, but I'd been itching to get back to running and to get back something that's just for me. Being a stay at home mom is not a "full time job", it's a 24/7 job and that makes it pretty difficult to find moments to yourself. So when Wildflyer put out the call for TC 10 mile runners and fundraisers it was perfect timing. Their mission and their execution of that mission is something you can jump at to support. https://wildflyercoffee.com/
So I would be honored and inspired if you'd support my fundraising efforts and my first 10 mile race!
Description
Wildflyer Coffee is a coffee company that hires and trains youth experiencing homelessness throughout the Twin Cities, giving them the tools and skills they need to leave homelessness, achieve self-sufficiency and build the future they deserve.
Every day, there are approximately 7,500 youth ages 16-24 in Minnesota that experience homelessness. These are people's sons or daughters, siblings, and friends, who are not only fighting to fit in with their peers but trying to find basic needs like food and shelter. The likelihood is high that these vulnerable youth will experience untreated mental health disorders, struggle with substance use, engage in survival sex or trafficking, become victims of violent crime or complete suicide.
This fall, I'm running the Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon/10 Mile race to raise money for Wildflyer Coffee. Your donation will help provide youth experiencing homelessness with paid employment, housing assistance, mental health referrals, skills coaching, education help, and future career planning. Thank you for joining me to end youth homelessness!
