Support Addison's Appalachian Trail Thru-Hike!

Donation protected
Hi! My name is Addison, I am 23 years old, and am planning on walking from Georgia to Maine in 2024.

There is no greater home to me than the woods. Over the past few years especially, my passion and appreciation for the outdoors has grown as I continue the messy, painful, joyous walk as a human being. Once I heard about the Appalachian Trail, I knew I was meant to hike it - as a celebration of a new life I am creating, and the marking of a new chapter.

Donating any amount to my journey would be greatly appreciated. Funds collected would help me cover gear replacement, hotel/hostel stays, food resupply, and any unexpected emergency costs that may arise. Donations would also cover cost's to care for my cat, Junebug, back home.

Attempting this thru-hike is an opportunity I am grateful to be able to attempt.

Thank you to everyone :)

One step at a time - Peace, Ease, Kind, Joy
