IT’S GO TIME!!! Here’s the official announcement regarding the 3rd Annual Katie Brienzo Memorial Walk!!!
Join us on Saturday, September 13, 2014 at the Our Lady of Angels Feast Grounds, located at 7 Jesse Street, Fairhaven for the 3rd ANNUAL KATIE BRIENZO MEMORIAL WALK!!! The walk is approximately 1.5 miles. Registration is $15 ($20 on Walk Day) and the First 100 to register receive a free Katie Brienzo Memorial Walk T-shirt. ALL proceeds from this event benefit the consumers of M.O.L.I.F.E., Inc., Katie’s favorite charity. Katie was also a consumer at M.O.L.I.F.E. and it was her home away from home. The staff there helped her not just overcome her disability, but to thrive as an independent young woman.
You can Pre-Register at the M.O.L.I.F.E. website or save the Registration Form, print it up, fill it out, and mail in a check/money order made payable to “M.O.L.I.F.E., Inc.” for the $15 registration fee. Here’s the link to Pre-Register by credit/debit card via PayPal: http://molifeinc.com/events/ You MUST include your PayPal confirmation number on the Registration Form when mailing it in to show proof of payment.
If you are unable to attend and would still like to donate to the Katie Brienzo Memorial Walk, you can check the line on the Registration Form to Sponsor A Walker for the $15 fee. This donation will go to those who want to participate, but who may not have the money to do so.
For anyone who owns a business or who would just like to donate generously to the Walk, we are accepting Sponsor donations. A donation of at least $100 will get your name or business on the back of this year’s t-shirt. Deadline for Sponsors is August 31st.
** WE WOULD LIKE TO ASK THAT EVERYONE WHO ATTENDS PLEASE BRING A NON-PERISHABLE FOOD DONATION TO HELP THE M.O. FOOD = LIFE FOOD PANTRY IN NEW BEDFORD **
Registration begins at 11am and the walk begins at 12 noon, sharp! There will be music by DJ JT Stevens, raffles, games, and face painting following the Walk. Food and drinks will be available to purchase as well. Again, ALL proceeds go to M.O.L.I.F.E., Inc.
Thank you all in advance for helping to keep Katie’s memory alive. This is an opportunity to do some great things in her honor. It’s going to be a fun day so I hope to see you all there and please spread the word!
Thank you for posting for my family!
