Online, by check, or through an employer matching program. You receive a receipt for your records the same day.
We are fiscally sponsored, which means we operate under the Edward Charles Foundation's 501(c)(3) rather than holding our own. ECF receives the gift, issues the tax receipt, and holds the funds.
Research, through Team Fox. And the community work: group runs, race entries for people who could not otherwise afford one, and the cost of keeping this running.
Give once or give monthly. Monthly is worth more than it looks, because it is the only kind of income a young organization can actually plan against.
Processed by Every.org on behalf of the Edward Charles Foundation. Your receipt arrives by email.
Run With Parkinson's has two charity entries for the Boston Marathon. No qualifying time required. What is required is a winter of training and a commitment to raise money for a cause that will not wait for you.
Any race, any distance, anywhere, with a fundraising page and something to wear. The race team opens once the giving side is live, and the mailing list hears first.
Get told when it opens →Many companies double a charitable gift and most employees never check. If yours does, a matching form sent to the foundation turns your gift into two.
Ask us how →Yes, to the extent allowed by law. The gift is made to the Edward Charles Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3), restricted to the Run With Parkinson's project. Your receipt comes from the foundation and carries their tax identification number.
The charitable foundation that fiscally sponsors Run With Parkinson's. In practice it means they hold the 501(c)(3) status, receive and account for the funds, and provide the governance that a first year organization does not yet have on its own.
A portion of every dollar goes to Team Fox, and the rest funds community programs and the cost of running them. The exact split is set each year with the foundation, and we will publish it here rather than describe it vaguely.
Yes, once online giving is open. Monthly gifts are the most useful kind by a distance, because they are the only income a young organization can plan a year around.
Yes. Email info@runforparkinson.org with the name and we will make sure it is recorded and, if the family wishes, acknowledged.
