September 30, 2022: The preliminary results are in! We raised $35,173.98 of our $40,000 goal so far. We’re so close! A huge thank you to everyone who participated in and/or sponsored the 10th Anniversary of Running For Rachael. No doubt about it, last Sunday (September 25) was a great day for ducks and daisies but a little wet for runners and walkers. And yet – look at the results!
And just so you know, there’s still time to donate! The Running For Rachael donation link is open until October 31. Funds raised are used to finance city-wide suicide prevention training, Roots of Hope suicide prevention and life promotion initiatives, education and support programs for those who have experienced loss by suicide. Together we CAN make a difference.
