Hi! I’m Shelly. I’m an academic counselor at Cabrillo College.

California Community Colleges and CalWORKs face significant budget cuts in the governor’s proposed budget. This will have a profound impact on the students I work with soooo….I’m Walking to Raise Money!

I will backpack around Lake Tahoe on the Tahoe Rim Trail. The trail consists of 165 miles of a single track multi-use trail with a change in elevation from 6,300 feet to 10+K. If you are willing to sponsor me with a pledge of any amount, we can make a difference in needy students’ lives.

Goals:

• To highlight student need
• Publicize pending budget cuts
• Raise money to assist students with emergency needs

How You Can Help:

You can pledge any amount per mile. For instance, if you pledged one penny per mile, I would raise $1.65. Here are some other options:

5 cents per mile=$8.25

10 cents per mile=$16.50

25 cents per mile=$41.45

$1 per mile=$165

Even a small pledge can add up quickly! If you would like to donate, please contact Fast Track To Work at Cabrillo College at (831) 479-6344 OR fasttrack@cabrillo.edu

When:

Beginning of August 2008. Details to be announced.
