Team "Chicas Dulces" - Goal: $500
Each week our Diabetes Club meets to talk about healthy food options while spending time together. Known as the "Chicas Dulces" (sweet ladies), the women from Diabetes Club have agreed to walk a lap of our 5K to encourage better exercise and fun participation! Help the women from Diabetes Club met their goal of supporting the Community Center as a place that supports their efforts to form healthy habits!
Team "Women in Action" - Goal: $500
Women from the community met twice a week to support each other and discuss topics of interest. The group includes girls from a local women's shelter as well as community members with students in MPI's Children's English classes. Many of these women have suffered from domestic trauma and therefore meet to discuss in a light-hearted atmosphere the struggles they have faced. Help this team reach their goal to support the Community Center to continue to be a safe place for them and their children.
Team "English for Everyone" - Goal: $500
MPI's English classes for adults and children are one of the largest programs at the Library. Representatives from our English classes are excited to run the 5K to support the Community Center as a place of continued education (and fun!).
