Running in the BMO Vancouver Marathon?

Postby KidSafe » Wed Dec 17, 2014 2:18 pm

Are you thinking about running in the BMO Vancouver Marathon in May 2015? If so, I would like to invite you to join KidSafe's Team of Heroes!

KidSafe is a Vancouver nonprofit organization that provides vulnerable inner-city children in East Vancouver with safe havens over school breaks. We are proud to have been chosen as an official charity for the BMO Vancouver Marathon for a third year. Last year, our Team of Heroes was made up of 98 individuals who raised $38,000 through their run! This money provided spaces for almost 100 vulnerable children to be able to attend our Winter Break Program, where they will be warm, receive 2 home-cooked meals each day, and go on fun field trips such as tobogganing, skating, or drinking hot cocoa at the Vancouver Christmas Market - things they wouldn't normally have the opportunity to do!

As a member of our Team of Heroes, you will receive special discounted registration prices for your run, a personalized fundraising page and assistance to make your fundraising simple and fun, celebrations to meet your fellow Team of Heroes members, a team t-shirt and chances to win amazing prizes!

To join our team, simply go to http://www.bmovanmarathon.ca and register to run the 8km, half marathon, full marathon or relay. While registering, make sure to choose KidSafe as your Run4Hope charity - the discounted registration fee will automatically apply! As a KidSafe runner, you commit to raising $200 for your run. Last year, our runners raised an average of $600 each, so we know this will be super easy!
