Paddle for Promise celebration on Delaware River

WILMINGTON, Del. (WPVI) -- Volunteers made a grueling trip down the Delaware River for a great cause.

Members of the Wilmington Youth Rowing Association paddled canoes 50 miles.

They started in Trenton, New Jersey and ended their journey in Wilmington, Delaware.

The fundraising journey benefits Urban-Promise and its job training program that helps Wilmington teenagers.

Delaware Governor Jack Markell was at the finish line to congratulate everyone on a job well done.
