A Virtual Challenge is also offered as part of the fundraising efforts for The Tide work in Cameroon. Donors may choose to give toward the $15,000 goal to help offset the radio programming, or they may donate to one of the three special project funds which includes providing community hand pump systems for clean drinking water, purchasing motorbikes to help their ‘boots on the ground’ get around more easily, or building structures to help shield the sun and rain at gatherings. The Virtual Challenge goes from May 17th – June 1st and participants may choose to run, walk, bike, hike, swim, or pray to participate. The Challenge totals 13 miles over the course of 16 days and, as participants enter their progress on their race page, they will unlock Milestone Markers along the race path with prayer suggestions for real people at real locations.
Individuals may choose up to three events from the in-person and/or Virtual Challenge for the same $35 entry fee. The registration includes a t-shirt and sticker.
In addition, sponsorship opportunities are available, which includes a booth space at the Norlo Park event on May 17th. For more information about the race events, sponsorships, or how you can get involved please email [email protected] or call The Tide office at 717-264-7288.
