Run a Race for BOMF
Updated: April 30, 2012MAKE YOUR MILES COUNT FOR MORE THAN JUST DISTANCE...RUN A RACE FOR BoMF!
If you’re a runner, you know the power the sport holds. If you’re just getting started as a runner, we’re excited that you’re beginning your journey with Back on My Feet and our fundraising opportunities are designed for runners of all levels, so we hope that you’ll find a race that fits your needs whatever the level.
Fundraising through racing – or FundRacing – makes up over 30% of the revenue needed to support our mission, so FundRacing is very important to what we do. And, it provides a great way for you to directly impact the Members we serve, as it costs $3,230 to host a Member in the BoMF "Next Steps" program in New York City, including $2,500 in financial aid.
Back on My Feet NYC is currently looking for FundRacers to support us in the following races:
- Ken Dolan Memorial 5K (June 3rd, no fundraising minimum required)
- JP Morgan Corporate Challenge 5K (June 13th & 14th, no fundraising minimum required)
- Reach the Beach Relay (October 12th & 13th, fundraising minimum required)
- ING NYC Marathon (November 4th, fundraising minimum required)
For more information on any of these races, or to find out how you can turn any race into a fundraising opportunity for Back on My Feet, please email Chrissie Ankerberg.
We have great packages for those wanting to turn their next run into a chance to help some amazing people.
And, for your fundraising you will also receive:
- Back on My Feet running gear
- Emails with fundraising and running tips
- Personalized fundraising page
- Fundraising support by a Back on My Feet staff member
For more information, please contact Chrissie Ankerberg.
CORPORATE AND GROUP FUNDRACING
Back on My Feet is proud to offer opportunities for a group of people looking to train for an upcoming race together. This is an easy and fun way to build community within your corporation or group of friends by creating a team and fund-racing for BoMF. Please note that every race is as unique as each corporation and group, and BoMF is more than happy to work with you in order to accommodate for these differences. For more information email Chrissie Ankerberg or see our Corporate FundRacing page.
