SPONSOR THE GIRL SCOUTS OF NASSAU COUNTY WALKATHON
If you’re a business or organization dedicated to improving the health - both physically and emotionally, of young girls everywhere, consider sponsoring the Inaugural “Girls Go The Distance,” Girl Scouts of Nassau County Walkathon on Sunday, April 25th at Jones Beach. Join local families, Girl Scouts and other supporters as they go the distance!
“Without the support from our local business community, we would not be able to educate our 22,000 members about the importance of healthy living,” said Donna Ceravolo, Executive Director of the Girl Scouts of Nassau County. “It is our hope that we help raise awareness for this important topic and make a positive difference in the lives of our girls now and into the future.”
The two-mile walk complete with entertainment and activities will support the Girl Scouts of Nassau County’s Healthy Living Initiative. The Healthy Living Initiative brings a unique perspective to keeping girls healthy. Girls define health in their own terms, placing as much emphasis on emotional and social well-being as physical health, nutrition and physical fitness. In addition to healthy eating and physical fitness, the Healthy Living Initiative also focuses on increasing girls’ self-esteem, media image awareness and how to develop healthy relationships.
Attendees will participate in exciting activities that can help them learn about healthy choices, while Girl Scout Alumnae and corporate teams can meet today's Girl Scouts, network with peers and be real-life role models for girls throughout Nassau County.
