AIDS Walk 2008!
It's hard to believe that it's that time again (especially looking out the
window and watching the snow fall!), but it is time to gear up for AIDS Walk
Northern New England 2008. EMAN will once again be hosting the Bangor/Brewer
route on Saturday, May 3. We will be gathering in the In-Town Plaza
parking lot at 370 Harlow Street. Registration starts at 10:00am and the
5k (3.1m) walk starts at 11:00am. We will have a little bake sale table
and bracelets and other goodies for sale as part of the
fundraising.
Register ONLINE right now! aidswalk2008.shorturl.com will forward you to our Kintera webpage. You can register right there or donate
or just get information about the Walk. The cool thing about registering online
is that you get your very own fundraising page! Your Kintera fundraising
page is a super handy way to gather pledges (people can pay with a credit card
online), track the progress toward your pledge goal, send information to friends
and family via e-mail, etc. And if you can get folks to pledge online, you don't
have to worry about collecting checks and cash. Nice huh?
Registration
forms are also available as part of the event brochure which you can download here or pick up at the EMAN office. All
money that is raised will be matched by the National AIDS Fund and be
distributed to EMAN and other local AIDS service organizations.
If you
are unable to or don't feel comfortable fundraising - that's okay! We'd love to
have you come out and walk, just to show your support. We can also use
volunteers to help us keep everything running smoothly. We will need people to
help set up, direct participants to the parking areas, act as crossing guards
and more. To volunteer, contact Suze at the phone number or email address
below.
If you have any questions about the Walk or need more information,
please contact Suze at 990-3626 or via
email
