ANTHONY JULIANO IS WALKING

THE CHALLENGE:

GOALS:

Why I'm walking 4 million steps for TrailsAs I was thinking ahead to my 56th birthday, I wanted to challenge myself to stay active while raising money for a cause important to me.For the challenge, 10,000 steps a day for 365 consecutive days seemed within reach, but not too easy. And since 365 x 10,000 = 3.65 million, I decided to round up. Because 4 million sounds a lot cooler than 3.65 million.For the charity, I'm walking to support Fort Wayne Trails. Allen County's trail system is one of my favorite things about the community I live in and recent federal and state budget cuts have greatly decreased public funding of trail development. While I might not be able to raise enough to cover the gap, I can get Fort Wayne Trails closer to its goals, step by step, with your help.

You can give in one of two ways:

• Become a monthly Trail Blazer donor. For as little as $10/mo, you'll provide ongoing support of trail development and maintenance

• Make a one-time donation to Fort Wayne Trails

Either way, please reference "4 Million Steps for Trails" or "4M4T" when you make your gift.
