Do you think that you have asked every single person you can when it comes to fundraising – chances are you haven't. You have probably covered the obvious groups (friends, family, co-workers), but what about all those other people who you interact with. Chances are that you have given them a lot of money (just think often you get your haircut or eat at your favorite restaurant) so now they can return the favor. REMEMBER TO STRESS THAT DONATIONS ARE 100% TAX-DEDUCTIBLE. Please see the attached list of possible people to give your fundraising letter or send your webpage to. I know oftentimes it is hard to ask for money, but remember the wonderful cause that it is going back to. The worst someone can do is say no, but you just might be surprised at the support you receive. There are only three rules when it comes to fundraising: ASK, ASK, ASK!!!

About Me
- Stephen
- I became involved with Team In Training during the Spring 2007 season by training for the New Jersey Marathon in Long Branch, New Jersey. Prior races include several 5K and 10K events, and one half marathon. Training for an endurance event takes a lot of commitment, courage, and vision. Looking back on my casual running experience for the past two decades, I never imagined training for a marathon! Through Team In Training, I found a great training program, developed new friendships, and made a significant impact by raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma from taking more lives. I am continually inspired by our featured team heroes and the personal stories from friends, family, and teammates that were shared during my initial fundraising for the cause. Please enjoy reading the past stories of my experience.
