OFTB is working hard to provide therapeutic and age-appropriate reading materials to children undergoing cancer treatment. Our goal is to provide our smallest patients with understandable information about pediatric cancer and treatment as well as to provide non-cancer related reading material that can offer a healthy escape into the world of books.
One of the main sources of fund-raising for One for the Books is the Run for the Books (RFTB) charity runner program. This unique program allows you to pick a race of your choice of any distance in any location. You agree to raise funds for RFTB. We agree to provide you with a personalized training plan, online (and in-person when possible) coaching support, and we even pay your race entry fee.
We also assist your in your efforts to fund-raise by setting you up with a free online fund-raising account and provide you with tips for creative fund-raising ideas. We have decided to keep minimums low to make joining us less intimidating, especially for new runners and new fund-raisers.
Event Description: | Fund-raising Minimum: | |
Any event 10 kilometers or less: (ex: 5k, 8k 5 miles, 10k) | $800 | |
Any event over 10 kilometers through Half Marathon (ex: 15k, 10 miles, Half) | $1300 | |
Any event over Half through Full Marathon (ex: 18 miles, 20 miles, Full) | $1750 | |
Any ultramarathon (ex: 50k, 100k, timed races: 6hr, 12hr, 24hr, 48hr etc) | $2400 |
I hope you consider joining our team!
