Fundraising

Fundraising may begin as soon as you become a part of the God's Grace Running Team. After joining the team you will be given a personal fundraising page that you can email to potential donors that allows them to donate online. The page will keep track of your progress and automatically send the money directly to GGAM as well as send a receipt directly to the donor.

The fundraising page you will be given will look similar to this: www.firstgiving.com/ggamloren

The idea is to solicit your friends, family, coworkers etc. by emailing the link to your personal fundraising page.

The deadline to meet your fundraising goal is November 1st, 2008. Married couples that participate are asked to raise $ 2,000 between the two. GGAM will be offering awards to the first team member to meet $1,500 as well as for the overall top fundraiser.

Would your children like to participate? There is a 3K "Just Run" kids event that will be held on Saturday Nov, 8th (the day before the half marathon). Children can have their own personal fundraising page as well. Although a child could probably raise $ 1,500 fairly easily, they could set their own goal with parents help. Contact me if your children are interested in this. Loren
