Please consider donating if you cannot run/walk this race. ALL proceeds will be donated to local education for African American history and culture. So, what are you waiting for? Donate for Harriet!
The two organizations which you are donating: The Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Byway and The Harriet Tubman Organization
These two organizations have continued impact on the legacy of Harriet Tubman and education around African American history.
The non-profit Harriet Tubman Organization in downtown Cambridge is a volunteer run museum that would directly benefit from this fundraising initiative. They are site #5 along the Byway. Their work is so important and often done without all the resources needed.
The Tubman Byway is a self-guided driving tour that winds for 125 miles through the beautiful landscapes and waterscapes of Maryland’s Eastern Shore, then continues for 98 miles through Delaware before ending in Philadelphia. It is the only place in the world that preserves and interprets the places where Harriet Tubman was born, lived, labored, and where she fled from. Discover the powerful and exciting stories at the byway’s 45 designated sites in Caroline and Dorchester Counties in Maryland and Kent and New Castle Counties in Delaware. Spend a couple of hours or a couple of days exploring. This organization works with touring the east coast in which Harriet Tubman once explored through.
