Philanthropy Friday: Join Me in the #MiracleMarathon

jennifer · August 15, 2014 ·

Each Friday, the another jennifer blog shares stories of those who incorporate philanthropy into their everyday lives – personally and professionally – in a creative and unique way. If you have a story you’d like to share, please contact Jennifer.

This post was made possible through the support of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. All opinions are my own.

I’m thrilled to share that I am serving as a lead blogger for this fall’s Miracle Marathon, specifically in support of EMHS Foundation Children’s Miracle Network Hospital in Bangor, Maine.

Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals raise funds for 170 children’s hospitals across North America. When a donation is given, it stays in the community, so you know you are helping kids in your own backyard. I love this about the Miracle Network.

The Miracle Marathon is a 27-day virtual fundraising campaign in which participants run/walk (or achieve forward motion of any kind!) one mile per day at their leisure. The first 26 days are completed at your own pace—wherever and whenever you want. On Day 27, the final 1.2 miles will be started as a group at 2:27 pm EST.

Get it? It’s a marathon, plus a mile, for the kids! And it’s perfect for those of us who like the idea of completing a marathon but would rather not complete all those grueling miles at once. (Who’s with me?)

Please join me and register to support EMHS Foundation Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. You can join my team, Maine Miracles, if you’d like, or you can support another Children’s Miracle Network Hospital closer to you. Don’t forget to tell your friends too!

And if you register as a Miracle Maker (you’ll receive fun swag!), you can use my special code MiracleJennifer to get a 10% discount off registration.

Of course, you can also donate to my Maine Miracles team as well. As part of my Giving Pledge I have started with a donation of $50.

Will you join me in supporting the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals?
