We Think Ivan Can
Support Ivan's Campaign while helping homeless youth
Goal
My campaign goal is to go bike riding with my daughter Niah every weekend for ten straight weeks. We will go biking to 10 different places around the Bay Area.
I chose this goal because
Last year my campaign goal was reading to my daughter every night before bed. The campaign helped get me motivated and focused on something that was important to me. I still read nightly to my daughter, she makes sure of it!
This year I'm hoping that my I Think I Can campaign is the beginning of a healthy and active life style for both my daughter Niah and myself.
I'm helping because
I have been on staff with At The Crossroads for 5 years. Originally, I came to ATC to work and support young people that were growing up in the same neighborhood where I grew up.
During my 5 years at ATC, I have worked with so many of these youth, for which I am grateful. But I've also had the opportunity to meet young people that come from completely different backgrounds than myself. Young people from all over the country, people from different cultures, people with different values, histories, and beliefs. What I've learned is that they are all amazing people, talented, funny, and all are deserving of a chance to improve their lives, and reach for their dreams.
About At The Crossroads
ATC walks the streets of San Francisco, reaching out to homeless youth and young adults on their turf. We work with young people who others have given up on, who would not get help without us. Since we started 13 years ago, we have worked with more than 5,000 youth, helping them build outstanding lives.
