Our 1st event was held on May 2, 2025.

We raised over $96,000 and had 45 brave Edgers rappel 14 stories down The Ross!

Why did we go Over the Edge for ALICE®?
We all know ALICE®.  More than 2 in 5 local households are ALICE® (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed).  Our ALICE® neighbors work hard but still struggle to meet basic needs. ALICE® lives paycheck to paycheck, making tough choices each month between safe housing, food, childcare, medicine and other essentials. Just one emergency can cause a financial tailspin (injured and out of work? childcare closes? car breaks down?).  

ALICE® is in nearly every workplace, classroom, and neighborhood.  UWLES and our partners work every day to help ALICE® and all neighbors access resources to help them move from barely surviving to thriving.  ALICE® lives on the edge, so we’re going Over the Edge for ALICE®!

United is the Way!
