For participating in Run for Rocky 5 km Run/3 km Walk 2023

My Story…

The Run for Rocky Legacy Project is an incredible part of our local 2SLGBTQIA+ community! The Campana family has made a huge meaningful impact in the lives of so students in our local schools through their support of the Gender & Sexuality Alliances and other student-lead groups supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ students, their friends and allies! 

I have been a part of the Campana family lives since meeting Nancy & Rob through the Windsor Pride Community centre in 2017 when they were organizing that year's Run/Walk. I was soon thereafter helping with the graphic design and joined Nancy's business Nouveau Event Planning as her assistant. We have worked together ever since! And Run for Rocky has been a big part of our labours. 

I have seen the benefit these funds make in the efforts of our schools to support their students and to provide education in our community. My life has been made better because of the Run for Rocky Legacy Projeect, and all those who support them! We are so fortunate to have the Campana family here in Windsor and for all that they do to support all our young people and Windsor-Essex's 2SLGBTQIA+ community! 


Please donate generously to this important fundraiser! 

Description

Five Run for Rocky events took place annually beginning in April 2013  through  April 2017. After a 5-year hiatus, Run for Rocky returned in August 2022 in conjunction with Windsor-Essex Pride Fest Weekend.  The fundraising efforts through this event have established a fund that will help support Gay Straight Alliances in local high schools and post-secondary schools in the years to come. This financial support includes GSA grants, GSA scholarships, funding students and educators to go to GSA educational conferences, the purchase of educational resources that help support parents and educators, and diversity training for educators. This funding model to support GSAs financially is unique in Canada.

The Run for Rocky Legacy Project continues to collect donations and allocates 100% of these funds strictly to the funding model.
