I’m looking to run the Boston Marathon for a charity. I know it’s last minute, but I had an injury in late fall. I thought I wouldn’t be able to run. Turns out….I will be ready. Anyone know of anyone still looking for volunteers this late in the game? Thanks. Lauren
Hi Lauren,
That’s wonderful! Glad you’re healed and excited about running for charity. We know of a couple of charities looking for runners:
Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children just received about 20 more bib numbers for the Boston Marathon and are looking for charity runners to join their team. Contact Tom O’Toole by phone at 617.587.1533 or email totoole@mspcc.org.
And Neurofibromatosis Inc has 5 spots for Charity Runners. Contact Debbi at debbi@run4nf.org.
Best wishes from Team Firstgiving!
