Support HSP Participants in the Human Race!

You, too, could be crossing the finish line April 26th!

On the blog a couple of weeks ago, we invited supporters of Humanitarian Service Project to consider running in the 3^rd Annual DuPage Human Race. HSP is grateful to be one of 50 local charities participating in the 5K run/2K walk on April 26^th in Downers Grove. Sponsored by Giving DuPage, the race supports non-profit organizations by donating the majority of the proceeds from the race to the charities involved. However, if you can’t physically participate in the event, don’t worry—there is still a way to show your support! We currently have 11 people signed up to represent HSP in the race. You can sponsor our runners and walkers through the Human Race by visiting this link: http://www.active.com/donate/dupagehumanrace2014/humanitarianservice. Your donation will go towards funding our programs that provide for needy seniors and children and will also motivate our runners and walkers to do their best! We will receive a majority of the funds raised, and there are additional monetary awards for charities that raise the most funds or have the highest individual donor, so please consider a donation!

Of course, if you would like to run for HSP in the race, there is still time to register. Visit http://www.active.com/downers-grove-il/running/distance-running-races/dupage-human-race-2014 and select “Humanitarian Service Project” under “What non-profit organization do you wish to support?” If you sign up to race and select HSP as the charity you wish to support, we will receive 60% of the race registration fee. When you register, please then let us know so that we can give you a big thank you and a loud cheer at the finish line!

Participating in or sponsoring the Human Race is only one of many ways in which you can support the work of Humanitarian Service Project. If you would like to learn more about other opportunities to get involved, please give us a call at 630-221-8840, email us at hsp@humanitarianservice.org, or visit our website, www.humanitarianservice.org.
