FEBRUARY 28 & MARCH 1, 2025
A 25-HOUR MARATHON OF FOOD, GAMES, MUSIC & MORE FOR CHARITY
ABOUT WMCD INC:
Started in 2021, WMCD Inc. aims to provide hands-on leadership work for middle and high school students, in order to teach them that giving back to the community can be fun and rewarding. WMCD is:
A youth-driven non-profit organization: our Youth Team works year-round to guide the direction of fundraisers, events, and ideas within our organization.
Hosting annual 25-hour all-nighters: by creating a unique overnight event for teens, we build a platform to talk about what leadership and giving back looks like as a teen.
Raising money for local charity: our youth select recipients to benefit each year, and the funds our youth raise (as a part of their hands-on work) goes to these charities.
ABOUT OUR RECIPIENTS:
Our youth team has selected three local nonprofit charities to benefit from the funds we raise through our 2025 all-nighter:
Rick’s Place - providing critical grief support to children ages 5-18, and their families. We’ve supported Rick’s Place since 2022, and it is important to our youth to provide resources for their peers who are going through a difficult time.
Griffin’s Friends - providing support, and creating moments of joy, for children experiencing cancer. We are happy to continue supporting Griffin’s Friends for a second year.
Rachel’s Table - battling widespread food insecurity by growing, gleaning, purchasing, and rescuing food. We’ve supported Rachel’s Table since 2023, and look forward to continue our collaboration at various events.
100% of the funds we raise by March 1 will fuel our mission to raise awareness of these organizations, engage middle and high school students in hands-on leadership work to raise money, and benefit these youth-selected recipients.
ABOUT ALL-NIGHTERS:
We wanted to do something big - not just to raise money for charity, but to bring the community together with hope, joy, and energy! But what is an all-nighter?
