Positive Tracks

There are so many people who have been struggling during these difficult times. Let us join together to help those who most need it.

WHO WE ARE HIKING TO HELP

The New American Dream Foundation is a non profit organization that promotes our nation’s rich immigrant history. Associated with Tribuna Newspaper, their goal is to help support organizations and individuals in their community. In April 2020, they began providing over 300 hot meals for Morris Street School to help families who were struggling due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Thanks to the help of the community, they are currently providing meals for Danbury residents at four elementary schools. Their goal is to expand to more elementary schools in the city to help support more families and after June 13, their focus will change from schools to supporting seniors and special needs adults living in Section 8 and Tax Credit Communities in Danbury.

SUGGESTED DONATION

Every dollar counts! Although you can join for free, we are trying to help this wonderful organization provide hot meals to those most in need. A suggested donation of $5 is encouraged, however please keep in mind that $20 can feed a family of 4. We appreciate any amount that you can give!

OUR PARTNER

We've partnered with Positive Tracks, an organization that teaches young people how to sweat for good. In addition to supporting our effort, they'll be matching up to $100 we raise for The New American Dream Foundation.
 
WHO CAN JOIN

Anyone and everyone! It doesn't even have to be a hike - it could be a walk, run, bike ride or even swimming!
