Help Olivia raise money

Hello! My name is Olivia Ahrens, and I’m raising money to run in the Twin Cities Half Marathon for the YMCA of the North on October 3rd/4th, 2026, for the YMCA of the North’s Adventure Team!

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.

I spent many summers attending and working at YMCA camp Menogyn. Those trips included some of the most daring, fun and empowering moments of my life. I am a better person because of my experiences at the Y and I am happy to have the opportunity to give back to their programming. 

Any amount, big or small, will make a difference! Help me reach my $1000 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.
