SAAM 5K for Jane Doe Inc
Tax deductible
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, and PBE is donating to Jane Doe Inc, an organization committed to sexual assault prevention in Boston. We acknowledge that there are miles to go towards ending sexual assault, especially on American college campuses, where 13% of all students and 26.4% of females experience sexual assault.*
We have decided to focus on the symbol of the bicycle as a reminder of the role we all doing the work to prevent sexual assault. It was two bicyclists, passing by, who intervened in the 2015 Stanford sexual assault of Chanel Miller.
You can complete the 5k however you choose. Bike, run, walk, swim, erg: the brothers of PBE only ask that you keep in your mind, as we pledge to, the work left to do to end sexual assault. Every dollar we raise will be given directly to Jane Doe Inc. T-shirts are also available for purchase.
