Interact Worldwide Events
Virgin London Marathon 2010
We had another fantastic team at the 2009 Flora London Marathon but 2010 is the start of a new era! And we are anxious to have a bigger team than in recent memory!
The 2010 London Marathon will take place on Sunday 25th April 2009.
This year we are asking each of our Gold Bond runners to raise a minimum of £1,700 in sponsorship; this will be used to make a positive impact to the lives of some of the worlds' poorest and most marginalised people. Our work across three continents helps prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS, increases the availability of family planning services, reduces maternal mortality and provides guidance about sexual & reproductive health, often in the face of restrictive community attitudes.
In return for your fundraising commitment and a £100 deposit, you'll get:
Ø Help and support
Ø A specialised fundraising pack to help you reach your target
Ø Regular news and updates by email
Ø Interact Worldwide running vest
Ø Dedicated support on the day! We'll cheer you on!
Closing Date for submitting applications (this can be done by post or email) is Friday 27th November; you will be notified by email no later than Friday 4th December about the success of your application. We regret that in some cases we will not be able to respond to unsuccessful applicants.
Interact Worldwide WILL NOT cash or bank any deposit monies of unsuccessful applicants.
