Why not be a philanthropic athlete?

Nothing compares with the self-satisfaction of competing in an athletic event, knowing that your participation is doing good for your favorite worthy cause. It’s easy.

 People just like you simply ask everyone they know to sponsor them by making a donation to their favourite charity.

 Simply ask your friends and colleagues to sponsor your effort in this event. Have them make a donation to your favourite charity to sponsor your effort. 

 Then advise us of the total you have raised, the name of the charity, and, in which event you participated in.

 In 1988, one of the participants of the 170 km Canadian Ski Marathon felt that it would enhance the feat if he were to use the athletic endeavor to attract sponsors to fund treatments for children with cancer.

In 1989, he approached numerous charitable organizations and suggested that they advertise to encourage participants of running, cycling, x-c skiing, triathlon and similar events to raise funds directly for their organizations.

In 1990, he came up with the concept of inviting the participants of events like this one to raise funds directly for the charities of their choice.

The suggestion and the concept now bring in over $150 million annually to worthy charities.

You too can make a difference.

Good luck!
