SUPPORT THE RUN FOR THE DUNES!  |
Six students from Princeton High School will be running down the coast of New Jersey from June 23rd to July 2nd. Evie Bentch, Julie Bond, Paige Metzheiser, Lou Mialhe, Raakel Vuojolainen, and Ellie Whaley will be covering the distance from Sandy Hook State Park to the tip of Cape May, and will be travel around 15 miles each day. The group was prompted to start planning this trip in the aftermath of the wreckage caused to New Jersey's coastline during Hurricane Sandy. After researching New Jersey based charities that helped the environment, the group was impressed by the efforts of The Alliance for a Living Ocean in dealing with Hurricane Sandy and other ongoing environmental problems. Please support these students in their 136 miles of running by donating to Alliance for a Living Ocean and helping us raise money to protect New Jersey's beautiful coastline and ocean. ALO will use funds raised through this endeavor to continue our cleanups and purchase plants to rebuild the area's dune system. DONATE HERE TO SUPPORT THE RUN AND HELP ALO: |
