Gear List and Post-Camino Review

Our Gear List Page (see the above tab) now includes my Post-Camino review.  Here's the direct link.

Great news -- we have exceeded our $5000 fundraising goal for Global Fund for Women and we are extremely close to meeting our $5000 fundraising goal for GirlVentures!  Thank you all for your contributions and support!!

If you would like to help us reach our overall fundraising goal of $10,000 ($5000 for Global Fund for Women and $5000 for GirlVentures), then please donate whatever you can spare to GirlVentures in honor of Girls on the Way.  Use this link and scroll down.  We are only $131 away from reaching our goal!  (Note: there's a $1500 donation on the way to GirlVentures that has not yet been included in their online tally).

Kearsarge North Video, and Happy Thanksgiving!

Support girls!  Donate to GirlVentures and/or Global Fund for Women!  If you're in New Hampshire, then you can also participate in our raffle.

Happy Almost-Thanksgiving!

We hope you have a safe and wonderful holiday.  We'll be back next week; in the meantime, here's a video of last Thursday's hike up Kearsarge North.


Coming next week -- gear selection, bedbug prevention, and more hikes!

Important Note About "In Honor Of"

Several people have told me they've donated to GirlVentures and/or Global Fund for Women...but they forgot to put "GIRLS ON THE WAY" in the "In Honor Of" section of the online forms.  Typing "GIRLS ON THE WAY" is important; the organizations can then easily see how much money is coming in because of us, and they can report back to me accordingly.  If you don't type "GIRLS ON THE WAY" in the "In Honor Of" section, then there's no way for me to keep track of our fundraising efforts.

Thank you so much for donating.  The nonprofits are getting financial support and that's all that really matters in the grand scheme of things.  However, I would love to know how we're doing.

If you've donated because of us but didn't type "GIRLS ON THE WAY" in the "In Honor Of" section, would you mind doing me a favor?  Send me an email at patriciaellisherr@post.harvard.edu and let me know the amount you donated and which organization you supported.  This way, I can keep an informal tally on my end while GirlVentures and Global Fund for Women keep track of "In Honor of" donations on their end (I won't publicize your name, email address, or how much you donated). 

Thank you for your support!
