How does Run For It work?
Run For It is a 2k & 5k walk and 5k competitive run in support of community organizations, civic projects, school activities, and charities within the region served by the Foundation. “It” is your community cause. You choose the community cause you wish to support and walk, run, roll or stoll for it. You do not have to be fast. The race is geared for all ages and all abilities. Strollers, wheelchairs, costumes and well behaved leashed dogs welcomed.
As host of the event, The Foundation offers a large award purse to motivate participation. We collect all entry fees, sponsor donations, and Match Donor contributions and distribute the race proceeds to their respective causes.
The race provides three opportunities to raise funds for your cause:
Entry Fees, Sponsor Donations, and Cash Awards
-
Sign up. Pay $10 entry fee. Half of your entry fee is donated to your cause.
-
Solicit sponsor donations in support of your cause if you’d like. All sponsor donations are tax deductible and the full amount will be distributed to your cause.
-
100% of cash awards are donated to the winner’s cause. The award purse starts at $5,300 and is updated as Match Donors pledge contributions. Visit the Awards link for updates.
If you are interested in participating either as an individual or as part of a team effort, see pg. 2 of the Event Packet for more Race Information.
