Susan Crockett 2021 Athletic Challenge Fundraiser

The Priority Center is Orange County's largest nonprofit dedicated primarily to the prevention of child abuse. TPC provides outreach, prevention, and intervention services to vulnerable families in our community. The center’s goal is to support families in crisis in order to foster resilience and end the generational cycle of trauma. Each year, TPC serves over 5,700 underserved children and their families. TPC also meets the needs of the community at large by organizing outreach and educational events that reach over 23,000 children and families annually.

Though the 2021 Ragnar Relay So Cal has been cancelled, The Priority Center's critical need for funds has not.  This year I will be running the Kauai 100 mile virtual challenge to raise needed funds to help give every child in Orange County a bright future and a great start in life. Every child deserves a safe and nurturing home free from abuse, neglect, and instability to help it reach their greatest potential.

I am running for Andre, a single father who lived in his car with his 5-year-old twin girls until our programs intervened. I am running for Paloma, a single mom at UCI with a baby, a full-time job, and a full time student status who is overwhelmed by the curve balls life has thrown her. I am trying to make a difference in their lives.

I am proud to support this organization, and I hope you can join me in raising money for all of the work that they do within our community.
