2019 Pittsburgh Marathon!

12/21/2018

Comments

 
Do you love running? Do you love making a difference in the lives of kids? Why not combine the two! CCChampions is excited to announce that we are participating in the 2019 Pittsburgh Marathon as a Contributing Charity, and we are currently recruiting runners! 
Picture
This year, our team is running in honor of our former intern, Victoria. From the day we met her, and her special smile, she brought incredible light into our lives -- the lives of our kids, our families, and our organization. Our team is running in her memory and in order to raise funds to create more special friendships like Vic's friendship with Sydney. 
Picture
As a thank you for running and fundraising for CCChampions, we will cover the registration fee for each runner that meets the fundraising minimum by February 28th, and the remaining proceeds will go toward creating inspirational friendships for newly diagnosed kids with cancer in the coming year.

Fundraising Minimums:
Marathon = $300
Half Marathon = $200
5K = $75
Team Relay = $500
Hand Cycle/Wheelchair Division = $100


In addition to registration fee coverage, you will have access to fundraising planning assistance, templates, support, team events, CCChampions swag, race training information and materials, and you will be part of vibrant and loving community of runners working to improve the lives of kids with cancer.

To join our team:
  • Go to https://www.crowdrise.com/o/en/campaign/ccchampionspghmarathon2019
  • Click "Join the Team and Create Your Own Fundraiser" to create your own page and begin fundraising!
  • Between now and February 28th, raise the minimum required for the race you wish to participate in and CCChampions will register for you and cover the registration fee.
  • Continue training and fundraising so that we can sponsor friendships for every newly diagnosed child in the coming year!
  • Race weekend: May 3-5, 2019 Run, Run, Run!
