Don’t forget! All runners who raise $9,000 by March 31 will receive a B.A.A. Celebration Finishers Jacket or any previous incentive for our second fundraising milestone!! Make sure to check out these great swag pieces that ALL teammates are eligible to receive if they reach the fundraising benchmarks listed under the swag! If you have incoming donations, or incoming matching gifts, please alert us ASAP so we can make sure we update your total, even if the gifts haven’t arrived to us yet / aren’t on your page.
Second Fundraising Deadline
A friendly reminder that the second team fundraising deadline of $5,000 dollars/per runner raised is due by 11:59PM on March 31. As a reminder, if you have not reached the $5,000 minimum by 11:59PM on the 31, your credit card will be charged for the incremental amount to reach the deadline. These charges will be applied to your total fundraising commitment and will not be refunded. Again, if you have incoming donations, or incoming matching gifts, please alert us ASAP so we can make sure we update your total, even if the gifts haven’t arrived to us yet / aren’t on your page. If you plan on meeting the commitment by making an outright donation, you can do so directly onto your TeamRaiser without us having to charge your card.
Marathon Madness Challenge
There are two more chances to win some SS swag if you receive the most donations or raise the most in the month of March! And don’t forget that on 4/1 (the championship!) the individual who raised the most money and the individual who received the most donations over the course of the three-month challenge will each receive a custom Stepping Strong YETI! Please note that if you are fundraising with other runners on a ‘team,’ the totals will be divided among the number of people you are fundraising with.
If you have any questions, please contact marathonteam@bwh.harvard.edu.
From start to finish,
Ali, Ally, and Caroline
