Please join me in supporting these great non-profit agencies!!
My fundraising goal is $1,000!
100% of proceeds go to support the following agencies:
**Windham Area Interfaith Ministry** **Windham Region No Freeze Shelter** **Perception Programs, Inc**
Even better, every dollar raised will be matched dollar-for-dollar by the Ossen Family Foundation!
This year I will be hiking 20 miles up the Shenipsit Trail. To date I've raised money for the Steeple Chase by hiking the Nautchaug trail in its entirety and section hiking the Nipmuk trail. Now that I've completed these two trails, I have my sights set on the Shenipsit.
I will be hiking from East Hampton to Gay City Park in Hebron CT. I have never broken the 20 mile mark hiking. It's my goal to do so on this hike.
I work for the Windham Region No Freeze Project and have served on their board since 2018. The positive impact they have on lives is incredible.
I currently serve on the Board of WAIM. They provide critical services to people in need and to help them stay in housing and stabilize their lives.
