A MESSAGE FROM Jess Barnard's Fundraising Page | Bras For Girls
Your contribution makes a difference! Thank you sincerely for your generosity, care, and dedication to breaking down barriers for girls in sports.

Let's take a closer look at some of the challenges:
* Girls’ participation in sports drops off significantly from ages 10-17.
* 46% of girls reported their breasts affected their sports and exercise participation.
* More than 50% of girls did not wear a sports bra with exercise.
* 87% of girls wanted to know more about breast development.
* 44% wanted to know more about sports bras and breasts in sport.
* “I can’t find the right sports bra” and “I am embarrassed by excessive breast movement”.
* 73% of girls reported at least one breast-specific concern in relation to sports and exercise.
* Only 20% of girls engage in at least 60 minutes of daily physical activity, a lower rate than boys.

I am SO PROUD to be running the NYC Marathon (my first marathon!) with Bras For Girls with the opportunity to fundraise for a mission so close to my heart. Running saved my life in a million ways. I want anyone who needs that opportunity - to have it. I'm committed to playing my part in educating, supporting, and advocating for girls to stay in sports. Together, let's rewrite those statistics.



Since its inception in 2017, Bras for Girls has donated over 100,000 new, high quality sports bra to sports teams, school programs, and community programs for girls between the ages of 8-18. Additionally, they provide breast development education booklets and resources.

Your donation will go towards covering warehouse costs, bra and booklet shipping and purchasing needed bra inventory beyond what is already donated by brands. Specifically, your donation will provide:

$50 - 3 sports bras
$100 - 7 sports bras
$250 - 17 sports bras
$500 - 33 sports bras
$1,000 - 67 sports bras
$2,500 - 167 sports bras
$5,000 - 333 sports bras
$10,000 - 667 sports bras
