Additional Information
Step 1: Register here to join TEAM CONGO for the Santa Monica. (By joining TEAM CONGO, your registration fee in the race is covered by Women for Women International and in return you're committing to a fundraising minimum of $125 per adult or $50 per child participating in the 2.7K race. You do NOT need to register on the Santa Monica 5000 website - we will take care of that for all TEAM CONGO members.)
Step 2: Set up your fundraising webpage and start fundraising to meet (and beat!) your $125 minimum! For tips and tools, visit the toolkit on www.runforcongowomen.org.
Step 3: We'll contact you about meeting up with your TEAM CONGO teammates at the event. We'll also mail you a Run for Congo Women t-shirt.
If you have any questions about TEAM CONGO, please contact Jennifer at jmorabito@womenforwomen.org.
We're excited to have you join us!
