Newton’s Hike For Mental Health

Goal: $500.00
$425.00 donated
I started doing this hike with friends a few years ago, first as just a non-registered participant. I met people from all walks of life; professionals and laborers, young and old, experienced hikers and some folks who really struggled with the climb and descent.
Everyone had been touched by issues affecting mental health. The last few years, I’ve been overwhelmed with the number of people in my own life that have reached out to support me, sharing stories about this issue!
Mental health and wilderness conservation are important causes for me, and though I’m nursing a shoulder back to full capacity after an injury and corrective surgery in May, I’m headed to the summit of Washington again with the fantastic group of people on August 24th!
