Canadian Friends of Fresh & Green Academy will be fielding a team of runners and walkers for the Virtual Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon in October. Run with us, walk with us or sponsor our participants to raise money for our kids in Ethiopia!
Choose your distance and run in spirit with the great Ethiopian distance runners – you can choose any day to walk/run in October, or join us in Innisfil on October 18th. When you register for your distance, you can choose to raise money for Canadian Friends of Fresh & Green Academy by scrolling down to the Scotiabank Charity Challenge and Marathon Relay Teams section. Then you can get your friends to sponsor you!
Here are the instructions after you register:
