On August 17, 2008 the Runaways
Running Club is presenting our 6th Annual Runaways Runaround 5 Miler, which will be run on a scenic course
through North Attleboro, Massachusetts.
We are very excited to be organizing this road race because, once again, the proceeds
of the race will benefit Community VNA Hospice Care (CVNA) in Attleboro, Massachusetts.
As you probably know, Hospice provides care and comfort to patients and families
in the final months, weeks, and days before death. As you may not know, Hospice of CVNA relies extensively on charitable donations
to achieve their mission.
- Since 2004, we have donated $15,000 to Hospice from our race proceeds--hopefully,
this year, with your help, we can top that amount!
There are many costs involved in putting on a road race--these include
event permit fees, race timing systems, awards, participants t-shirts, water, etc.
We are seeking sponsors to help defray these costs.
While any amount would be much appreciated, if you donate $100 or more, your business name will appear in our online
sponsor listing for a year, and on our 2008 event t-shirt and promotional material.
We hope you will assist us in this endeavor to support Hospice--by doing so, we will be helping
Hospice carry out their mission of compassionate care of the terminally ill members of our community. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Sponsor Manager
Race Director
