Help the Grassroots Outdoor Alliance get 500 Kids Outdoors in 2014

(Asheville, NC) Please help the Grassroots Outdoor Alliance

Grassroots, in partnership with Horny Toad, has set a goal to get 500 disadvantaged kids active and engaged in the outdoors. The pilot program uses experiential and educational programs provided by IJAMS, a Knoxville-based nature center. Their programs encourage stewardship of the natural world by providing an urban green space for people to learn about and experience the outdoors. All proceeds from the event will go towards funding this program. Please help us get 500 kids active and engaged in the outdoors.

 Just $25 gets one child outdoors for a day. Please take a moment to sponsor the program at http://fundly.com/500-days-of-kids-outdoors

In addition, please join us on Tuesday, November 19th for an evening of unforgettable films in support of an incredible organization and help us reach our goal!

The film series will take place at Knoxville’s Bijou Theater. The screen schedule can be found on their website at www.knoxbijou.com/shows/616135
