Local Outdoor Enthusiast Turns a Love of Hiking Into Something Great, Sends Foster Kids to Camp.
A local outdoor enthusiast decides to send some foster children to summer camp. Despite the negative effects of the economic downturn on charitable causes, contributions currently exceed expectations by 500% for The Power of Motion, a local man’s campaign to give back to the community.
Sacramento, CA, March 26, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Local outdoorsman Jef Spencer decides to give back to the community by creating a charitable campaign called The Power of Motion. This charity celebrates a commitment to giving through the support of keeping in a hiker in motion. Be it on foot or by bike, sponsors contribute for every mile hiked or biked by the creator of the charity throughout 2009. 100% of the proceeds go to sending foster kids to a week long summer camp.
The Power of Motion is not the typical charity where sponsors just write a check to a worth cause. They get to live vicariously through the outdoor adventures of Jef Spencer throughout the year. Every month, sponsors receive an eNewsletter that includes the outdoor adventures experienced by their hiker. Also included are health tips, outdoor recipes called “Trail Bites”, opportunities to participate in a year end drawing and many other informational shorts related to enjoying the outdoors.
All proceeds go to Camp Rockin’U, a program that facilitates sending foster kids to experience a week long summer camp. Camp Rockin’U is administered by Environmental Alternatives, a non profit 501c3 organization devoted to providing services to the foster children in Northern California’s foster care system.
