By committing to this event, and pledging to raise money for its success, you are helping raise invaluable funds to help support TAL.
We wish you all the success possible. Train, set and achieve new goals, enjoy the race… and get all the sponsors you can, so when you cross that finish line, we will all be winners – you, your fellow friends and all the people we help through our outreach.
3. How can my sponsors submit payment?
Online contributions can be made by credit card on the runner’s personalized page found on this website. Just make sure to tell your sponsors to select your name from the list of runners.
4. I am concerned that I might not be able to raise the required funds. Will I be able to do it?
Even if you've never raised money before, our materials and strategies will make it easy for you to solicit and collect sponsorships from friends, family, colleagues, neighbors, and others. Experience has shown that it is not only possible, but enjoyable, to set and reach your goals. Please refer to the sample letters found on your personal fundraising page center, that explains the programs the Run supports, and you will be surprised to see how quickly friends, family, and co-workers will respond to your request to help this wonderful cause. Just remember to make it personal as well, as you want them to know that they are sponsoring YOU and YOUR efforts! And, as many companies offer charitable donation matching programs, make sure to ask your sponsors to check with their employers, as it will help you meet your goal ever more quickly.
5. When do the funds need to be in?
The sooner the better :) June 15th is the deadline for funds to be raised. (This is after the run.) But the earlier the goals are met the better! Any bonus swag is only eligible for funds raised before the event.
5. Is the Run only for Runners?
No! All female family members and friends are welcome and encouraged to cheer on the runners.
6. Do You Run Alone or as a Team?
We will do the actual run as a collective group. However, the fundraising goals are for individuals.
7. Is there a refund/exchange policy?
Yes. If a donation was made accidentally or for the wrong amount, simply make us aware of the issue and we will be happy to make any necessary refunds, changes or corrections. Race registration fees are not refundable.
8. Is parking available?
Please note that the parking lot will be available throughout the morning. However, the parking lot may not be big enough. In that case you can find a place to street park - there should be spots near the school. Please allow sufficient time for parking and registration. |
