A MESSAGE FROM Evelyn Shoop
I am so excited to be part of the 2025 End Child Poverty California Marathon Team, doing the 5k! I've worked with End Child Poverty CA since 2015 -- they are an amazing group with an incredible track record of getting smart policies passed.
Did you know that about 20% of children in California are experiencing poverty and the effects of financial insecurity? That's crazy! Poverty is a policy choice, not a personal choice. The outcomes associated with poverty are impacting not just the lives of children, but their families, communities, but all of us.
We need to answer a collective call to action to change this reality for generations of Californians. I am answering the call by training on my recumbent Fun Cycle trike, and walking to help this extraordinary organization with their work to finally end child poverty in California.
Will you support me in this effort by donating and helping me meet my personal fundraising goal?
