My Story…
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page for the Vancouver Pride Run on July 28! Please give generously what you're able to ARC Foundation / SOGI 1 2 3 (OR the other great charities benefitting from the run's fundraising!), and / or join us on the team and help raise funds and run/walk/amble with us to help ensure kids and youth of all sexual orientations and gender identities can be their most authentic selves.
This year, I'm doing the 5 km race in honour of my mother Aldean, who passed away recently, but exemplified what it takes to be a supportive parent as I "found my true self" in my teens and early 20s -- her love and support meant the world and helped me have a happy, healthy coming out story, which set me up well to be more successful in life AND to be a more active and engaged member of society and community (same thing we're working hard to do in the education system for K-12 students with SOGI 1 2 3 -- by working directly with educators to build their capacity to be SOGI-inclusive in their classrooms and schools). Plus she always supported and encouraged us in sports (and other endeavours), so... this event is a perfect way to pay tribute to her. I love you, Mom.
