FUNDRAISING EVENT

 

We can help you succeed. Together we can brighten the future of children who are blind and partially sighted.

We will help you every step of the way from training to race-day support.

JOIN US and make your dreams come true.

Training programs are available and begin early October. We will train you. No experience needed!

We encourage all runners to raise a minimum
of $500. Donations are tax-deductible. Special gifts will be given to our top fund-raisers.

Become a Corporate Sponsor.

Charity Relay and 5k
Consider participating in the Charity Relay if running a marathon isn't your thing. You and a partner will each run a 1/2 marathon (13.1 miles). Find your own partner or we can find one for you.

Don't forget about the 5K if 26.1 and 13.1 miles are just a little too much for you. It's a great warm-up run the day before the marathon or a fun run/walk with Blind Childrens Center friends.

Let's get started!
Contact Laurie Headley at (323) 664-2153 ext. 342 for your charity code to register. Registration opens October 1.

Please note: Do not register online until you contact Laurie. We will not be credited with you as a runner if you do not use your charity registration code.

What your donation means to the kids…

$25 Will pay for school books for our children's library.

$50 Will pay for specialized learning toys for the partially sighted children.

$100 Will pay for a white cane.

$500 Will pay for one classroom field trip.

 

Support your favorite athlete and help provide a child with skills that will last a lifetime. Send your gift here.
