What is Back on My Feet?
"Back on My Feet (BoMF) is a national non-profit organization focused on helping homeless people gain independence, living skills, and connect them with essential community resources. The organization's name, and its initial program for members, are focused primarily on physical exercise, specifically early morning runs."

Who are we?
We are 4 Saint Joseph's University Business School students: Cecilia Geraghty, Madeline Kuntz, Jacqueline Mursch, and Catherine Vivian. We all share a passion for Philadelphia, physical activity, and giving back to the community.
How are we going to help?
1. Raising money!
We will be raising money through donations, cookie sales at SJU sporting events, bracelet sales, and keychains sales. 100% of our proceeds will go directly to Back on My Feet.
For online donations of over $20, we will mail you a free handmade Back on My Feet bracelet as a thank you gift!
Not only do sales and donations have a social impact by changing the lives of individuals who are experiencing homelessness, but these funds will have an economic impact as well. For every $1 invested in Back on My Feet, nearly $2.50 is returned to the local community through increased economic output from employment and reduction in costs for shelter, medical services, incarceration, and addiction treatment.

2. Volunteering!
We will be volunteering at the Back on My Feet 5-miler on Saturday, March 25th. All proceeds from this race will benefit the Back on My Feet Philadelphia chapter. We will also be participating in several morning workouts with Back on My Feet.

3. Spreading the word!
We will be interacting with students, alumni, and other individuals throughout this entire process. Through communication and marketing of our campaign, hopefully we will inspire other people to choose to become involved with Back on My Feet!
