My Story…
Dear Family and Friends,
As much as I love fundraising, hitting up friends and family for cash isn't my jam. But hey, this time it's different—I'm lacing up for a good cause! I'm gearing up to run the Falmouth Road Race and raising money for the Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts.
Now, full disclosure: I haven't done any serious distance running in over two years, so come race day, it's all about muscle memory and a whole lot of prayers!
My goal? A cool $1,981. Every dollar counts, seriously! Your support means the world to me and to GSEMA. So, if you can spare even a tiny bit, it'll go a long way in helping us reach that finish line together.
Thanks a ton for considering it and for backing me and the Girl Scouts!
Cheers,
Rashonda
Description
Building strength and confidence in girls is the cornerstone of Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts’ (GSEMA) mission. Girl Scouts allows girls the opportunity to take risks in a safe and supportive environment, challenging them to try new things and build their confidence. Armed with this assurance, girls go on to do great things: leading peers and others, innovating and forging new paths, and thinking outside the box to benefit their families, communities, and beyond. GSEMA membership is 30,000 strong, with girls and adults in 178 communities in eastern Massachusetts.
Girls gain valuable skills in the four pillars of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience: Life Skills, STEM, Entrepreneurship, and the Outdoors. The Girl Scout programming is a collection of engaging, challenging, and fun age-appropriate activities including earning badges, selling cookies, exploring science and the outdoors, and implementing community service projects. The Girl Scout Leadership Experience is a collection of engaging, challenging, and fun age-appropriate activities including earning badges, selling cookies, exploring science and the outdoors, and implementing community service projects.
For over 110 years, Girl Scouts has delivered diverse leadership programming to develop the next generation of strong female leaders with self-confidence and positive values who seek out challenges, maintain healthy relationships, and are committed to improving their communities and beyond. There are currently over 50 million Girl Scout alums; 60% of female members of the 117th Congress are alums, virtually every female astronaut who has ever flown in space is a Girl Scout alum, and every female secretary of state in U.S. history is a former Girl Scout- Madeleine Albright, Condoleezza Rice, and Hillary Clinton.
