Family Services is a proud charity partner of the Cellcom Green Bay Marathon

Volunteer for the Cellcom Green Bay Marathon

Family Services is one of three charity partners for the 2012 Cellcom Green Bay Marathon, scheduled to take place on Saturday, May 19 and Sunday, May 20 at Lambeau Field. There are a number of ways you can support Family Services through the marathon events.

 

  • Volunteer your time

    You can be part of the action and meet a group of really great people by participating in the event as a volunteer.

     

    Family Services is currently recruiting volunteers to help staff the water stations at the marathon's Saturday morning training runs on February 4, February 18, April 7, and April 28. For more information or to sign up, contact Samantha Fenlon at 920-436-4360 ext. 1242 or sfenlon@familyservicesnew.org.

     

    This spring, we will also be recruiting 150+ volunteers to help out in the food tent and with course coning on race days. Position times and details will be posted this March.

  • Be a charity runner: "Run for a Reason"

    You can run free of charge by enrolling in Run for a Reason, the marathon’s charity fundraising program. The marathon offers an easy-to-use, web-based program that makes your fundraising a breeze. Simply visit the First Giving website and create your personal fundraising page. Then email that page link to all of your friends, family, training partners, and co-workers.

     

    Anyone who raises $300 or more between now and midnight on May 1, 2012 will get a free entry to any of the marathon’s events, other than the marathon relay (1K Kids’ Run, 5K Run, or the Half or Full marathons). All of the funds raised go directly to your chosen charity partner, which of course would be Family Services!

     

    Contact Jeff at cpoppele@new.rr.com for any questions on the Run for a Reason program.

     

  • Support a runner

    If you’re not so anxious to run a marathon yourself, you can instead support the efforts of a family member, friend, neighbor, or co-worker. Visit First Giving to view each runner’s personal page and donate to their chosen cause.
