The Sojourner Truth Walk: Celebrating Girls' and Women's Leadership

The Sojourner Truth Walk is the annual fundraiser for our mission partner Camp Sojourner Girls’ Leadership Camp. First Church again has a team this year, and we hope many can participate!

This event is named in honor of Sojourner Truth, an African-American woman who escaped slavery and then fought to end it, while also speaking out for women's rights and economic justice. She, along with many others, has served as an inspiration and role model for generations to come.

Funds raised through the Sojourner Truth Walk will be used to provide scholarships for girls to go to camp, and to help fund year-round leadership activities which are free for girls and families.

You can participate in the walk virtually or in person (masked), at the Meadow at Bartram’s Garden, where there will be many fun activities and all ages are welcome. Please see event details page for more info.
