TL;DR (too long, didn't read) - I'm doing Claire's Dares this year - click here to check out the crazy challenges I'll do for donations for EDGE. edgeyl.org/clairesdares Our goal is $10K. Willow is on staff this year. So excited! Please support!
Welcome to Claire's Dares where your donation unlocks my flare; we have a $10K goal and we need YOU to get us there!
Below is a bingo card of epicosity. Challenges ranging from eating something sour to HOLY SMACKS, a tattoo??
Pick a dare, donate the amount in the square and I will do that dare, document it, and post and tag you or send it to you. Or if you really want to get into it we can video conference while I get goofy doing your dare.

Our goal is $10,000. That covers the costs of over 28 students! These funds are critical as we are rebuilding our relationships with schools, with funders, and with alumni after Covid upended those relationships.
If you want to hit up any of that bottom row - I won't be mad!
What do you say? Give today and you’ll have memories you can’t scrub out of your brain for years to come.
Thank you for continuing to support us and EDGE!
You are so appreciated!
OUR STORY
When I was a sophomore (many decades ago now), I attended a leadership seminar that changed my life. I walked in unsure of myself and walked out believing I had something to offer my community. That experience shaped every choice I made after it, and I've spent the last 20+ years volunteering with EDGE Youth Leadership because I want other students to have that same moment of realizing what they're capable of.
Charlie got pulled into the EDGE vortex when we were dating back in 2006. Since then he's contributed videos, graphic design, mentorship, moral support, and more evenings stuffing envelopes than either of us wants to count. He's a keeper.
EDGE 2026 is coming up in less than a week! I’ll be packing up my office and driving up to the Bay Area to help with all the things behind the scenes. You all know that I love my spreadsheets! Charlie will be behind the camera as always and this year, Willow will be on staff supporting the recruitment team and students.
Willow and I joined the Recruitment Team this year to reach out to schools all over CA and now we are raising money to pay for them!
We love you!
