Every spring, our Circle de Luz hijas train to run the CPCC Skyline 5k in an event we call Run Big Dream Big. The race is a way for them to connect with what their amazing bodies can do. It’s a way for them to enjoy the outdoors. It’s a way for them to see parts of Charlotte they don’t normally see and meet great women who train alongside them. But the race is more than that really. As they complete six races over the course of their years in our program, they realize that Run Big Dream Big is not just something to do on an early Saturday morning it April. It’s a metaphor for how they live their lives. It is the THE metaphor for life. It is the type of journey that allows them to see how their life can be lit up.
Because I so profoundly believe in our hijas’ ability to cross every finish line before them, I use the Run Big Dream Big experience to raise funds for the over 50 programs we offer our girls each year. Today, I am asking you to take a moment to learn more about our hijas’ dreams by watching this incredibly inspiring music video (I bet you’ll recognize the song that inspired it) and making a donation of $20 (or any amount that you are comfortable donating) to our Run Big Dream Big VII efforts. If you prefer to mail a check, you can do so by making it out to Circle de Luz (put RBDB- Rosie Molinary in the memo line) and mailing it to PO Box 2 Davidson NC 28036. This donation is tax-deductible, and you will receive a receipt.
With your generous support, every single one of our girls can cross her literal and metaphorical finish line! Thanks so much!
