Ramblin' Rose Events Celebrating the Empowerment of Women
Ramblin’ Rose events are not only about “empowering” the participants, but they also provide great benefit to several very important non-profit organizations.
The Ramblin’ Rose Raleigh benefits the AE Finley YMCA’s We Build People Campaign, Beautiful Together and Tri It For Life.
More About the We Build People Annual Campaign:
The YMCA We Build People Campaign is a community-wide effort to raise funds for children, teens, families and adults who need the Y. 100% of the money raised goes to fund programming in our YMCA community.
Your support helps youth, family, and teens!
All it takes is one person to make a difference by making a gift, telling a friend about the importance of We Build People, volunteering at an after-school program, or mentoring a child to keep him or her on the right path. You can make a difference in your community today.
Leo and Rodrigo are two outgoing middle school students with good grades and a plan for their futures. But, these brothers haven’t always had it all figured out.
Many years ago they came to the Y barely able to speak English and too shy to participate in activities or speak up in class. YMCA programs funded by We Build People provided Leo and Rodrigo support in and out of the classroom. [read more] [watch video]
Beautiful Together Supports Children Without Families.
Beautiful Together supports children without families. This non-profit organization shines a light on children who wait to be part of a family while living in foster care, group homes, or orphanages through a combination of professional photography, video profiles, and social outreach, to better connect them with waiting families.
Beautiful Together also works to improve the quality of life for these children – and all those involved in foster care, domestic and international adoption today – through specific, tangible, and measurable projects, with the long-term goal of effecting positive change both in the perception of, and the systemic issues in, domestic and international adoption.
You can engage with Beautiful Together TODAY and help support children without families at www.BeautifulTogther.org
More About Tri It For Life:
Tri It For Life brings women together. Mothers. Daughters. Wives. Sisters. Grandmothers. Tri It For Life mentors spend 12 weeks helping you discover a new title—Triathlete! All too often, women find themselves putting others first. Tri It For Life not only helps you train for your first women’s only triathlon, we encourage you to bring the focus back to you. Along with training the body to swim, bike, and run, we develop friendships for life, a renewed sense of spirit, and empower our athletes to believe in themselves.
Now in our 15th year of training women in North Carolina for their first triathlon, Tri It For Life has branched out from its base in Charlotte. In addition to the Raleigh Chapter, now in its ninth year, Tri It For Life plans to open a Charleston, SC chapter and a Chapel Hill Chapter.
Tri It For Life training culminates with the Ramblin’ Rose Women’s Only Triathlon in Raleigh, South Charlotte, Huntersville, and soon in Chapel Hill. Deciding to “Tri” is a difficult step but it’s one step on the journey to developing a healthy lifestyle and friendships for life.
Since 2006, more than a 3000 women athletes supported by over 2100 mentors have crossed the finished line. Join the thousands of women that have made this journey to become triathletes by saying, “Yes, I CAN! Join us in 2020.
Tri It For Life. Your Life.
