AFTERGLOW CHARITABLE PARTNER:
THE LIGHTHOUSE FOUNDATION
Tour de Trails and Afterglow Night Trail Run are super excited to welcome to the fluro fold, the Lighthouse Foundation, as our charitable partner.
Check out more about the Lighthouse Foundation and what they do here.
Lighthouse Foundation provides homes and therapeutic care programs to children and young people impacted by long-term neglect, abuse and homelessness. Our focus is to create caring communities where kids can feel safe, form meaningful relationships and begin to heal from traumatic experiences.
We encourage you to support Lighthouse Foundation to eliminate youth homelessness in Victoria by donating via the registration form or better still, click on the links to register your very own fundraising page to support them whilst embracing your own unicorn magic during your run.
Runners can donate via this donation (appreciated but not mandatory), or better still, connect with the Lighthouse Fondation and set up a MyCause fundraising page to fundraise directly for the organisation and get involved in all the great outcomes it tries to achieve for those most in need.
A MyCause fundraising page? How does that work?
Set up your page then have fun promoting to your friends, family and sundry, to donate and support your run. This means all funds go directly to Lighthouse Foundation, and your fundraising potential has no limits!
Once you have registered to run in Afterglow (any distance), you then go to this page - www.mycause.com.au/events/afterglow - and set up your own MyCause page that you then promote to friends, family and sundry, to donate and support your run. This means all funds go directly to the Lighthouse Foundation, and your fundraising potential has no limits!
Ah, I don't have time to fundraise - can I just donate?
Alternatively - if you don’t have the time or inclination to do the call out fund-raising thing - you can simply donate yourself any amount. You will see when you sign up for the event itself, that you can add in a fundraising amount nominated by you.
100% of the funds donated here will go towards The Lighthouse Foundation.
