My Story…
For over five years, I've dedicated myself to serving in the non-profit sector, navigating the complex challenges faced by vulnerable youth in the Calgary and surrounding area. From addiction and mental health struggles to homelessness, neglect, and decades of intergenerational trauma, I've witnessed firsthand the resilience and deeper potential within the often overlooked individuals in our community. I love spending my life helping others, but much of the work myself and others like me do cannot be done without your generous support!
By supporting my marathon endeavor, you're not just cheering me on from the sidelines; you're investing in programs and initiatives that transform lives. The funds raised through this marathon will fuel organizations like Trellis, championing a wide array of essential services in Calgary and its surroundings.
Your contribution will impact our entire community, supporting vital programs in Youth Housing and Shelter, Education, Employment, Early Childhood Development, Immigration and New Canadians, Foster Care, Residential and Treatment Facilities, Clubs and Experiential Learning, and Indigenous Initiatives.
Together, we can break down barriers, ignite hope, and pave the way for brighter futures. Every step I take in this marathon is a testament to our collective commitment to creating positive change.
Please join me on this journey. Your generosity will not only propel me forward on the racecourse but will also leave a lasting legacy of compassion and support in our community.
Thank you for your unwavering belief in the power of unity and kindness. Let's make every stride count and make a lasting difference together!
Description
Help Me Make a Difference with Trellis Society
This year, I’m proud to participate in the Calgary Marathon in support of Trellis Society, an organization dedicated to creating a community where everyone can flourish. Trellis walks alongside individuals, youth and families as they overcome challenges and grow in their own way.
Every dollar I raise will go directly toward helping people access the supports they need, whether it’s housing stability, parenting guidance, affordable therapy, or education and employment resources.
With your help, we can:
- Provide critical resources for families facing tough times.
- Empower young people with the skills and support they need to thrive.
- Build strong, connected communities where everyone has the opportunity to succeed.
I believe in the power of community and collective action, and I invite you to join me in making an impact. Together, we can help create lasting change, one step at a time.
Thank you for your support!
