The Skipping Turkeys - Skip Happens

The Skipping Turkeys 🦃 | 100 Skips a Day for Jeans for Genes

Hi! We're the Rafter family… or as we've proudly nicknamed ourselves, The Skipping Turkeys! 🦃 (Fun fact: a group of turkeys is called a rafter—we couldn't resist!)

This August, we're taking on the challenge of 100 skips every day to raise funds for Jeans for Genes.

Our goal is about more than just fundraising. We want to encourage our family—especially the kids—to get outdoors, stay active, and show that healthy habits can be fun when you're doing them together. Every skip is a chance to move our bodies, make memories, and support an incredible cause that's helping children and families.

We'll be taking our skipping rope everywhere we go, so you can follow along and see where our daily skips take us! Whether it's at the park, at the beach, or in our own backyard, we'll be sharing photos and videos of our journey on Facebook and Instagram.

If you'd like to support us, we'd be so grateful for a donation of any size. Every contribution helps make a difference for children living with genetic conditions.

Thank you for cheering on The Skipping Turkeys as we skip our way through August—100 skips at a time! 🦃💙
