Run for Connection: Support the Acorn Fund at Lake Garda!
On April 6th, I'll be lacing up my running shoes and taking on the stunning Lake Garda Marathon in Italy, all to raise vital funds for the Acorn Fund, a new and powerful endowment for Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin.
This year, the Acorn Fund is tackling a critical issue: loneliness and isolation. In our beautiful rural communities, these challenges can be particularly acute, affecting both older adults and young people. Your support will directly fund crucial projects like community hubs, youth clubs, mental health support, and digital connectivity initiatives.
The Acorn Fund is a unique, long-term approach to supporting our community. By pooling donations, we're creating a sustainable source of funding that will benefit generations to come.
Your donation will:
- Support Local Heroes: Directly fund voluntary, community, and charity organizations making a real difference.
- Empower the Shropshire Community Foundation: Help them grow and evolve, ensuring long-term impact.
- Provide Meaningful Help: Reach those who need it most, right here in our county.
Every Donation Counts!
Whether you can give a little or a lot, your contribution will make a tangible difference in the lives of people across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin.
Join me in running for connection! Please donate today and help us build a more connected and supported community.
