Still Time to Help Save Lives A-CROSS Maine
Every August, a month-long annual event takes place that plays a crucial role in saving and protecting lives, maybe even yours one day. Cross for LifeFlight - a fundraising campaign for the very crucial services provided by LifeFlight of Maine.
This annual event, which takes place during the entire month of August, is a self-directed outdoor challenge for individuals and teams and relies on peer-to-peer fundraising and sponsors to raise critically needed funds for LifeFlight of Maine. - crossforlifeflight.org
Raise Funds for LifeFlight of Maine Through Cross for LifeFlight In-Person Events
This year, there are three in-person events (with two still remaining to register for if interested) where the only requirement is a $350 fundraising minimum through your own social media, family members, friends, coworkers, etc. The first in-person event was a huge success with a beautiful sunset paddleboard across Casco Bay.
The next in-person event occurs on August 15th.
HIKE. Cross Penobscot County: Join us for a group hike on Thursday, August 15, 2024, at 4PM at Fields Pond in Holden, ME in partnership with Maine Audubon.
