ONE MORE SLEEP until Ride for Refuge!

I’m walking in support of the Cedar Centre, which helps children, youth, and adults recover from the impact that interpersonal childhood trauma has had on their lives.  See my previous post for my (long-elevator) pitch!  (https://alyssawright.com/blogs/journeys-in-lyssy-land/posts/7640783/it-s-back-i-m-doing-ride-for-refuge-in-support-of-cedar-centre-october-4)

Thanks to new donations from Sarah and Rob, I’ve now earned another “Gold” pin this year as a top fundraiser – and have now tripled my original goal, just to see if I can make it.  My team, Vixon’s Villagers, have raised 165% of our goal.  But the Cedar Centre is still sitting at only 96% of their $26,000 goal.  

CAN YOU HELP THE CEDAR CENTRE RAISE THE REMAINING $924 TO REACH THEIR GOAL???

Or can you maybe even share this with a friend, who might be able to help us exceed our goal yet again this year?  Or even just tell three people about the incredible programs and services offered by the Cedar Centre for children, families, and adult survivors of childhood interpersonal trauma?  With six out of ten children reporting maltreatment before the age of 15 in Canada, you could easily be not just saving a life, but helping someone to thrive.

Saturday looks like it's going to be a glorious afternoon, and Ali, Christine and I (plus Vixon and Truman, of course), are looking forward to a beautiful 5K walk through Fairy Park in Newmarket, plus a wee celebration of all you've done to help us raise money for this amazing organization.
