Thank you for making the 16th Annual Gingerbread Build an Amazing Day!

On Belay’s annual Gingerbread Build fundraising event is a premier Seacoast event that launches the community into the holiday season.

Each team helps us get one step closer to helping every child in our community who has had their life turned upside down by the cancer of someone they love. 100% of funds raised to providing On Belay’s free adventure programs for our community’s youth impacted by a loved one’s cancer diagnosis.

Congratulations to our 2024 Gingerbread Build Winners!
