Everesting for St. Paul College Students
A nonprofit fundraiser supporting
Friends of Saint Paul College$1,275
raised by 17 people
$5,000 goal
If you know me, you know that I like to do big things. It's a way to challenge my body and my mind and prove to myself and others that we are all capable of much more than we think.
This summer, I will be Everesting on foot. And I'll be doing it as a fundraiser for students at St. Paul College.
Would you join me by making a donation?
Our goal of $5,000 would support the needs of 10 students at St. Paul College.
The Ride
I will climb Ajax Mountain in Aspen, Co 9 times. 3,200 feet per lap to total 29,000 feet. This will be my longest day ever on foot.
The Cause
St. Paul College Students are eager to learn in-demand job skills. 65% are students of color. 61% are the first in their family to attend college. Others are retraining after years in the workforce. Their safety net is very thin.
Their hard work and your thoughtful gift propels them to a better life.
An education at St. Paul College gives students access to family-supporting jobs and careers that build wealth. More than 85% of students find jobs within one year of graduation.
The money raised will go directly to Saint Paul College students through scholarships and the Emergency Fund (which provides stop-gap grants when students have a car, babysitting, housing or other emergency which might prevent them from continuing school).
