Fundraising: There are two easy ways to raise funds this year!

1. Manage your pledges online:

Bright Hope has made the pledge process easier than ever. You can create your own fundraising web page for the 2008 Run for Hungry Children. Your network of family, friends and co-workers can make their donations online. They will receive your request and thank you via e-mail. Your web page tracks your progress towards the goal you set for your personal network.

Clicking the registration link below will allow you to sign up for the race and then you will be given the opportunity to set up your own personalized fundraising web page. We have included recommended language and pictures or you can personalize the page on your own.

You can even create a fundraising team to raise funds as a group consisting of your family, friends and co-workers.

2. Pledge Form:

If you would rather take pledges with a pledge form, you can download an official Run for Hungry Children pledge form HERE. Please turn in all pledge forms with donations at the May 17 event.

Pledge Goals

Every $30 raised in donations provides food and education for one child for one month with $360 supporting a child for one year. Set your goals to help as many children as possible and ask your network to give in $30 increments whenever possible. But remember that a donation in any amount adds up and helps the children.

Pledge Awards

$90 in pledges supports one child for three months and qualifies you for a long sleeve Bright Hope “Partner” t-shirt.

$360 in pledges supports one child for one year and qualifies you for an embroidered shirt. Shirts will be mailed to qualified participants after the event.

Runners/walkers with the highest pledge amounts for all race locations will receive some great gifts. Awards will be listed here prior to the event.
