Help Forrest raise money

Hello friends and family!

Forrest here! I’m raising money to run in Twin Cities 10-mile on October 6th, 2024 for YMCA of the North’s Adventure Team, a cohort of 17+ camps and adventure programs that offer outdoor experiences for all ages, 365 days per year. I have the unique opportunity to do something I love (run long distances!) for places I love dearly! 

The intrinsic value of the outdoors is something I believe every person should have access to, it is a healing place, a place to connect with others, create lasting memories and friendships. I got to experience this as a kid, I am getting to see my kids and hundreds of other kids experience this all summer and throughout the year. 

Please help me in our efforts to ensure that we can a space of healing, growth and belonging for people of all backgrounds. Y Adventure is fundraising specifically to increase our equity, inclusion and belonging efforts- including but not limited to: scholarships, continued learning experiences for our staff, and more! Y Adventure is committed to creating inclusive, accessible spaces that acknowledge shared history and nurture diverse communities. 

Any amount, big or small, will make a difference. Help me reach my $500 fundraising goal and get to the starting line of Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon Weekend by donating today! All proceeds will go directly to supporting our team’s equity, inclusion and belonging efforts.
