other races and virtual athletes

Is 26.2 miles just one mile too many? Don’t have time to train for a race? Are you concerned about the health of girls? Share your story on your very own free fundraising webpage, about how and why Girls in the Game is important to you, and encourage others to take action by donating and supporting our mission!

Last year one of our Virtual Athletes raised more than $3,000 to send Nichole and other girls like her to our Sports and Leadership Summer Camp. Read Brenna Duffy’s story, here!

Benefits

• Free fundraising web page to collect online donations and promote your cause
• One-on-one fundraising planning, advice and a complimentary fundraising guide
• Raise $500 and receive a complimentary Girls in the Game t-shirt (men and women sizes available)
• Raise $1,000 and receive a Nike bag filled with training gear and supplies
  
• Choose where your money goes—whether you want to support a specific program or the organization as a whole—80 percent of all funds benefit programming directly. The national standard is 65 percent.

Commitments
There is no fundraising requirement for Girls in the Game's Charity Race Team members who want to race in events that exclude the Bank of America Chicago Marathon or the Rock n' Roll Chicago Half Marathon, or raise money virtually. The sky's the limit!
