SHOW ME THE MONEY!

It has been very exciting to see the donations come in on behalf of the children of Oak Ridge Elementary!! Wanted to give a shout out to a few of our runners…
Top fundraisers to date: Ivan Castro, David Bry and Jenna Velasquez. WAY TO GO!! Keep ‘em coming!!
Mark Snyder and Jill Goonight, you are off to a great start!!

Family and friends have probably asked about or at least noticed what you are doing. Be sure to share with them that you are running for a reason, the children of Oak Park. GET THE WORD OUT! We have set up a master fundraising page that you can build yours off of. Super simple! http://grouprev.com/equalstart
