On August 17, 2024, I will be participating in an 18-mile open ocean paddle from Montauk, New York to Block Island, Rhode Island; a fundraiser for Paddlers for Humanity.   This will be my sixth year participating in this extraordinary event.  

Paddlers for Humanity has been dedicated to bettering childrens' lives, with an emphasis on supporting innovative and comprehensive mental health programs for kids and youth, including greater early intervention outreach, resilency, anti-bullying, and changing behavior through a focus on the positive.  Plus, the P4H Catastrophic Fund supports families in crisis on the East End of Long Island.  To date, they have raised 2 million dollars.  For more info on the specific causes Paddlers for Humanity has donated to, see http://www.p4h.org 

Please help me to reach my required $1500 goal in order to participate in this event.  No amount is too small and all donations are greatly appreciated.  Who better to support than our youth? 

I truly can not do this without your support.  I thank you in advance on behalf of our local youth.

With gratitude,

Tara
