Runner Seeking Charitable Runners

CRC,

I am writing in search of runners interested in participating in the 2011 Boston Marathon and raising money for charity. This year Children’s Trust Fund (CTF) received 7 numbers for the 115th running of the Boston Marathon®.  On April 18, 2011 each member of CTF’s Marathon team will run in support of CTF’s work preventing child abuse and neglect across the Commonwealth.  With 4 of the 7 numbers filled, CTF has 3 charitable numbers still available.

CTF’s administers several programs aimed to prevent child abuse and neglect in Massachusetts.  CTF serves families throughout Massachusetts with an emphasis on children between the ages of birth through 6; and supports programs for parents of all ages, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds.  This year, CTF will provide programs that serve over 100,000 parents, children, and family service professionals.  CTF is breaking the cycle of child abuse in Massachusetts by providing parents and caregivers with the resources they need to succeed at the most important job there is—raising healthy, safe children.   For more information about the Children’s Trust Fund visit www.mctf.org.

We would appreciate it if you could share this information with your members.  And if any members have an interest in running one of the most prestigious marathons and supporting the Children’s Trust Fund, they can please email Alicia Lenahan at Alicia.lenahan@massmail.state.ma.us  or call her at 617-502-8761.

Thank you so much!

Kate Bullock
