🔅Boston Bulldogs Running began as a running program for participants regardless of their capabilities, some being smokers and most never have considered running before.
✨This idea expanded and grew into launching the co-ed program that it is today - open to any individual, family member, friend, or supporter suffering from the impact of addiction.
❤️The program embodies 3 core principles: self-leadership, transparency, and giving back.

✨This week I am highlighting this year's very first episode of Small & Gutsy in which I speak with Neil Silverston and Sabeta Jarba from Sparkshare.
💫Sparkshare began as a response to youth not being engaged in problem-solving the issues that directly impacted them.
⚡️Neil Silverston and his colleagues saw this gap and began to address it through large-scale meetings where invited youth are asked to be partners with adults in addressing youth-identified issues that impact their respective communities.
