Why We Get Pledges:
We are raising money for the scholarship created in memory of Ruby Harvey. Your $5 registration fee covers part of the cost for us to buy your T-shirt, so that money does not go to the scholarship. People's pledges and donations are where the money comes from to help pay for the scholarship.
Getting pledges is something adults do often when they want to raise money for something they care about in their community.
We think making things better is something kids care about and are VERY good at doing. You have energy, enthusiasm, and love to have fun. You can show everyone just how strong KID POWER is really is. Kids working together make good things happen!
How Pledges Work:
Ask your classmates, friends, family, neighbors and teachers to make a pledge. A pledge is a promise that they will give a certain amount to the scholarship for you to finish the run. Grown ups and kids can pledge!
