If you are walking or running the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon September 28th, 2008, please select STWM for instructions.

The challenge of running a race is a gift to yourself, give back and help girls to achieve their basic right of an education.

 

What others have also done!

• One group met after their weekly run for coffee at one of the member's homes and they contributed a $ amount each week.

• One group had a bake sale

• Have a pot luck dinner party and invite the guests to bring a tax deductible $ donation (only the $ donation is tax deductible). We can loan you a video of our works and send brochures.
