Our Youth Leadership Advisory Council has been working hard on organizing a special fundraiser to help raise money for our Florida Indian Youth Program this summer.
This will be a Walkathon where each participating student will log their miles walked between April 10th and April 23rd. Donors will pick a student to sponsor and plege an amount of money to pay per mile. At the end of the fundraiser, students will total their miles and we will collect the donated money.
You can contribute from anywhere - just email forms@fgcia.org with the following information:
- Name and contact info
- Student you are sponsoring (if you would like to donate and don't have a student in mind you would like to sponsor, we can choose for you)
- Amount pledged per mile (0.50-0.75)
Students, if you are interested in participating in this walkathon to raise funds for FIYP this summer, please email Sierra at stedder@fgcia.org
