Help Project 16:49 hit their goal by sharing this fundraiser or making a donation! Good luck, runners!

Tomorrow is the 16:49 Challenge. Our friends Shilo and Paul are set to start running at 5 AM and continue logging hours and miles until 9:49 PM. Watch for updates throughout the day. You're welcome to catch up with them along the way and cheer them on, or run along with them.

- Support their effort and, in turn, our youth: donation link posted in comments, or send to/drop off at Project 16:49, 2911 Carrousel Lane, Janesville 53545

Did you know? The fundraising goal of $16,490 was established because that is the approximate monthly cost (depending on the season!) to support one of our transitional living homes.

- If you have any questions you'd like us to ask Shilo and Paul, please share them here or message us. We'll be connecting with them along the way tomorrow; and they are planning to do a FB LIVE sometime this weekend to recap their experience.
