Team for Kids

Dear Friends/Family,

I’ve decided to run the 2017 TCS New York City Marathon with Team for Kids and I am asking for your support of their inspiring mission. Team for Kids is a team of adult runners who raise funds for critical services provided by New York Road Runners Youth Programs. These programs combat childhood obesity and empower youth development via running and character-building programs across the country.

Making a donation is easy! You can click https://www.runwithtfk.org/Donate/Member/48905 to give through my secure fundraising site.

You can also find information there about where to write a check, or how to get your company to match your gift here! All contributions are tax-deductible.

Your giving helps New York Road Runners Youth Programs to:

• Serve more than 200,000 students locally and nationally through free NYRR youth running programs, events, and resources, including more than 120,000 in New York City’s five boroughs.
• Reach children of all fitness levels and athleticism, with a heightened focus on reaching out-of-shape and overweight kids with little or no athletic experience.
• Prevent overweight or obese children from eventually suffering heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and other chronic illnesses that lead to health-care costs in excess of $100 billion annually.

Whether you are a runner, have worked with children, or have kids yourself, I hope you will join me to further this great cause!

See you at the finish line!
