Happy Girls Run – leave a comment and help raise donations!

By Jon | Filed in Events, Fundraisers, Sports

Happy Girls RunThis Memorial Day weekend, the 2nd annual Happy Girls Run is taking place with a half marathon, a 5K and a “Happy Little Kids” 1.5K run, with proceeds going to benefit the KIDS Center—and even if you’re not participating directly, you can still help raise donations for the Run to benefit the KIDS Center by leaving a comment here on this blog post!

COUNTRY Financial is the premier sponsor for the Happy Girls Run, and they are very generously offering a comment-based donation/fundraising opportunity: for every unique, non-spam comment left here on this post, COUNTRY Financial will donate $5 to benefit the Run and KIDS Center.

COUNTRY FinancialHere are the guidelines:

  • Make sure to leave at least your name and email (the email won’t be publicized or shared), anonymous comments won’t qualify;
  • Make it a unique and non-spammy comment—“I love the KIDS Center!” is fine, but let’s try not to promote anything non-relevant;
  • The donation will be per-person, not per-comment—so one person leaving 10 comments will only count once.

COUNTRY Financial will donate up to $500 from this promotion!

Let’s raise some money!

Update: The comments are now closed, but THANK YOU EVERYONE who left a comment! This is awesome!!
