Get Involved

So, you want to get involved?  Fantastic!  There's three ways to do that:

  • Be a Hero - Heroes are people who commit to raising money to put 10, 20 or 40 kids in school by raising $250, $500 or $1,000.  As a Hero, you'll get into the race for free and you'll be eligible to win great prizes!  Anyone can be a Hero -- from kids to adults -- so check it out!
  • Be a SuperHero - SuperHeroes commit to monthly donations to put kids in school all year around.  Interested in that plan?  Sign up here.
  • Run the Race - Whether you're a competitive runner, a weekend warrior or just like a good stroll with friends, we'd love for you to come to the race.  Don't run?  No problem.  There's games and activities for the whole family!
  • Be a Corporate Sponsor - Interested in being a corporate sponsor?  There's a lot of benefit - including exposure to 1,000 of our event attendees.  Let's talk: email info@elliesrun.org and we'll get back with you soon. 
  • Host a Party - ERFA supporters are big into parties - which is why we've turned our birthdays and other celebrations into fundraisers for Africa.  It's really easy to do - and we've made it even easier with this toolkit of party ideas and posters to promote your event.  Check it out!

Regardless of how you're involved, we're grateful for your support!
