GNV4ALL Goes to Alaska!

A Fund Raising and Awareness Campaign for the Gainesville for All, Gainesville Empowerment Zone Family Learning Center

Who We Are

My name is Terry Clark and my wife Susie and I are traveling by motorcycle roundtrip from Gainesville, FL to Alaska during May-July, 2022.  We have partnered with Gainesville for All (GNV4ALL) to raise awareness and funds for their local project entitled The Gainesville Empowerment Zone Family Learning Center (GEZ-FLC).  The title of the campaign is GNV4ALL Goes to Alaska! 

A satellite tracking device will be mounted on the motorcycle so you can find out in real time where we are located.  Terry will also be writing a daily blog providing trip updates and photos.  

Our goal is to raise $10,000 for the GEZ-FLC project and to spread the word about this important organization and project.

The GNV4ALL Gainesville Empowerment Zone Family Learning Center

In 2015, only 28% of Black third-graders in Gainesville read at or above the third-grade level compared to 74% of white third-graders (University of Florida, Bureau of Economic and Business Research, 2018). This is unacceptable and the GNV4ALL GEZ-FLC is designed to raise the reading levels of Black children in Gainesville.  For more information about the project please visit gnv4all.org/gez-flc. 

How to Contribute

There are two ways you can contribute:

1. Contribute on a per-mile basis.  For example, if you agree to contribute one cent per mile and Terry and Susie ride a total of 10,000 miles you would contribute a total of $100.00 at the end of their trip.  If you agree to contribute one-half cent per mile and Terry and Susie ride a total of 12,000 miles you would contribute a total of $60.00 at the end of their trip.  The amount you contribute is dependent on how many miles Terry and Susie travel and is paid at the completion of their trip. Or,
2. Contribute a lump sum.  This is a simple lump sum contribution regardless of how many miles Terry and Susie travel.

You will be provided links to the GNV4ALL Goes to Alaska! tracker and blog once you commit to contributing funds.  

To commit to contributing funds please send an email to Terry at terryandrewclark@gmail.com and James F. Lawrence, Director of GNV4ALL, at gnv4all@gmail.com indicating:

All contributions are voluntary and based on the honor system, it is your responsibility to contribute.
