A MESSAGE FROM Kerri's 2024 TCS SWB Fundraising
Round 2! I am again running the NYC marathon this year with team Soccer Without Borders. This time I am fundraising to support SWB Nicaragua, specifically to help contribute to scholarships supporting young girls in Nicaragua and their higher education goals.
SWB Nicaragua uses soccer as a way to build leadership, improve educational outcomes, and strengthen social-emotional skills for girls, ages 5-20. There are many factors that cause a girl in Nicaragua to drop out of school, including domestic responsibilities in the home, a financial need to work in the market/informal economy, unplanned pregnancy, and a lack of visible pathways and encouragement for women to enter the workforce and pursue a career. SWB addresses these barriers through holistic, long-term programming and a future-focused culture that invites girls to "dream big" and imagine their future.
Please support my fundraising efforts for the 2024 TCS New York City Marathon Fundraising. No donation is too small!
