We're excited to announce that the Jack Grubbs Memorial Love in Action Challenge will be taking place this May! This challenge is an opportunity to move with a purpose and change lives in Tanzania. The Love in Action Challenge is held in memory of Jack Grubbs, whose legacy of love continues through every mile.
Last year, our Love in Action participants raised funds for a fourth Shade school bus that students are now happily riding to and from school every day! The funds raised through our Love in Action Challenge go towards tangible projects on the Shade campus, so you'll see exactly how your support makes an impact. Check out this video to see the way students reacted when the fourth school bus made it to campus last year.
We're gearing up to get moving again from May 1st - May 31st, and we want you to join us!
This year's goal: log 15 million steps and raise $40,000 for the construction of new bathrooms.
As Shade continues to grow, our need for essential facilities, like bathrooms, does too. With over 40 staff members and an expanding calendar of community events, ministry gatherings, and education opportunities, it's time to make Shade more welcome and functional for everyone who steps onto our campus. This critical upgrade will serve our team, allow us to better host parents, and create a more comfortable, accessible space for Community Club Members and ministry guests.
This May, teams will come together to walk, run, bike, dance—whatever gets you moving—and raise funds to build a brighter future for Shade students. We're asking YOU to get moving so that progress can keep moving forward at Shade.
P.S. If you kindly increase your registration fee to $50, you'll get a free Shade t-shirt! Select this option on the registration page and you'll be able to rep Shade everywhere you go.
