Event Raises $250,000 Toward $325,000 Goal with Two Weeks Still Remaining
Reidsville, NC – September 13, 2025 – Mount Jubilee Ministries (MJM) marked a significant milestone with its 10th Annual Family Fun Walk, held during the organization’s 20th anniversary year. The beloved community event has already raised an impressive $250,000 toward this year’s ambitious goal of $325,000, with two weeks still remaining for supporters to help push the campaign over the finish line.
A Decade of Impact
What began as a modest community gathering has grown into the premier fundraising event for Mount Jubilee Ministries, consistently bringing together hundreds of supporters, families, and Heroes (adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities) for a day of celebration and community impact. This year’s 10th anniversary celebration was particularly meaningful as it coincided with MJM’s 20th year of serving the community.
Touching Hearts and Minds
The 2025 event featured several memorable moments that highlighted the profound impact of MJM’s programs. Julianna Rhyne captivated the crowd by reading an original poem she wrote about Camp Jubilee, drawing heartfelt responses from attendees. Parents also took the stage to share powerful testimonies about how His Path and Camp Jubilee have transformed their families’ lives and supported their Heroes’ growth and development.
Record-Breaking Fundraising Day
The day-of-event fundraising exceeded expectations, with the live auction and “gift from the heart” donations generating more than $25,000. This immediate support demonstrates the community’s unwavering commitment to MJM’s mission of changing the way the world views adults with special needs.
Community Support Continues
With 80% of the $325,000 goal already achieved, MJM leadership expressed gratitude for the overwhelming community response while encouraging continued support in the final two weeks of the campaign.
“The 10th anniversary of our Family Fun Walk during our 20th year as an organization is incredibly meaningful,” said Jessie Meador, Mount Jubilee Ministries’ executive director. “Seeing the community come together year after year to support our Heroes and their families reminds us why this work is so important. We’re amazed by the generosity shown and excited to see what the final two weeks will bring.”
