Fundraising For Youth Missions
All proceeds from our event will go towards Grace Christian Fellowship's Mission Immersion Program (MIP). MIP is a dynamic youth development initiative dedicated to nurturing local youth with an enriched sense of purpose and a passion for global engagement.
MIP's intensive program equips teenagers with the knowledge and skills to become thoughtful global citizens.
These youth and young adults participants embarked on a mission to Panama in 2024 and will be returning in 2026. Our objective is to collaborate with the incredible Ngäbe people, an Indigenous tribe residing in the mountainous regions of western Panama and Costa Rica.
The continuing vision of the Mission Immersion Program is to empower local youth to experience the value of other cultures while getting to share God's love in practical ways with people in need, all over the world.
Together, we strive to ignite a greater sense of purpose and hope in the hearts of both our local youth and the youth they will uplift globally!
Go Polar for a Purpose!
JOIN US! Your run and support is changing the lives of the Ngabe people and our young people here at home! :)
