Make It Count! Choose to run/walk for charity this year and make your participation count like never before! The Charity Partner program was initiated in 2009 to provide opportunities for selected not-for-profit organizations to utilize the Fifth Third River Bank Run for fundraising and community relations purposes. For 2012, 21 charities will partner with the Fifth Third River Bank Run to raise funds and awareness for their causes.
Make your participation in the Fifth Third River Bank Run count even more in 2012 by choosing to run or walk for one of the 21 Fifth Third River Bank Run Charity Partners. Already registered for the race? No worries. Just contact the charity of your choice and let them know that you want to run/walk for them.
