More background:
I've been following Camp Sojo's amazing work for over a decade (since 2011!) and several of my housemates have participated as camp counselors and board members.
As the organizer of Walk Around Philadelphia, I'm keenly aware that in Philadelphia (one of the poorest big cities in the US) not everyone has the privilege to access the kind of outdoor experiences that I've been fortunate to have.
Camp Sojourner helps Philadelphia girls/youth, regardless of their economic background, have the opportunity to take charge of their own lives and be agents of positive change in their communities. All programs are offered on a sliding scale, with significant scholarships.
Please consider joining me & some of my fellow perimeter walkers for this event and walking in the streets of West Philadelphia to celebrate girls/youth leaders. Or sponsor me, and help support Philly girls/youth!
