5K for 4K Tulane Athletics Donor Drive
Tulane Athletics is excited to announce a new and fun way of promoting health while supporting our student-athletes - the "Tulane Athletics 5k for 4k". We need your support as we make our final push to set a new record of 4,000 donors to the Tulane Athletics Fund (TAF), the official fundraising arm for Tulane Athletics, which supports our truly amazing student-athletes in their academic, athletic and community pursuits. This is a vehicle to drive membership to TAF by having all coaches, staff, and student-athletes sponsored to run (or walk) the 5k! Also participating in this event will be Tulane faculty, students, and current members of TAF. Any and all Tulane Athletics supporters are invited to participate and lend a hand in bringing in 4,000 donors to TAF. HOW YOU CAN HELP: Please consider sponsoring one of these fine young men and women, as well as our coaching staffs, or any participant, as we put our feet to the pavement for a great cause. If you are currently a donor to TAF, please help spread the word to other Tulanians, friends, and family to sponsor you. If you are unable to participate you can still help by urging people to sponsor those who are participating! You can also make an impact by participating and sponsoring yourself if you have not yet made a gift to TAF. Don't forget to have your friends and family to sponsor you as well. One person's participation in any of these ways will bring numerous new donors to TAF! WHEN/WHERE: The 5k for 4k will take place Saturday, June 13th, at 8:00 am. The race/walk will begin at Westfeldt Practice Facility track located behind the James W. Wilson, Jr. Center on Tulane's uptown campus. The race ends at home plate at Greer Field at Turchin Stadium with a final running of the bases! The party will continue after with entertainment, food and beverages for all participants. ENTRY FEE: Free to all current TAF members, Tulane students, faculty and staff and anyone who brings in at least one sponsor. Kids below 12 are free. If not sponsoring anyone (or getting sponsored), cost is $30 to simply participate. Please note that if you are a participant in the event and someone sponsors you, your $30 entry fee will be credited back to you. You may choose to sponsor yourself if you are able to join us for this fun event.
