FUNDRAISING GOAL of $250,000
The climb begins June 28th, 2025
Support Bethesda's CEO George Trauner & COO Jerrad Rimel on their trek up Mt. Kilimanjaro while raising funds for our Right Start for Young Mothers Program!
Please consider donating in support of our brave leadership as they climb for promising futures.
Our climb will be supporting our Right Start for Young Mothers Program which provides services to pregnant or parenting young women ages 12-21 with their accompanying infant, toddler, or young child.
Our skilled team of staff works with young women to assist them in becoming strong, confident, and independent mothers using strategies and techniques aimed at enhancing parenting knowledge and skills, continuing education, and developing independent living skills. Program staff provide child care and age-appropriate developmental activities for infants, toddlers, and young children residing in the program.
The young women participate in evidence-based therapeutic treatment groups to include evidence-based parenting classes a minimum of two times a week. Young mothers are offered mental health therapy from our skilled clinicians, and obtain psychiatric, psychological, and medical consultations, as necessary.
Donations towards the climb can also be made by check or cash donation at our office at 15487 State Hwy 86 Meadville, PA 16316
