WWP

BTWG is actively involved with a not-for-profit organization called “Wounded Warrior Project” and make efforts to raise funds to support the WWP.  Chris is a veteran and one who supports our military personnel, he and the BTWG Crew feel it’s important to put your money where your mouth is and to offer others an opportunity to show support for our troops, airmen, and sailors.  If you would like to help, but are not sure how, here is your chance!

The BTWG long-term goal is to raise $10,000 for WWP.  One vehicle used for raising funds and awareness for WWP is through Chris’ competing in ultrarunning events (ultrarunning is any run that goes beyond 26.2 miles).  He also offers special training events and opportunities in which all the money is donated to WWP.

What is the Wounded Warrior Project?

Here is how you can help us reach our goal of raising $10,000 for WWP:

• Online contribution: via Chris’ WWP web page – click HERE.
• Pledges: You can pledge to contribute a certain dollar amount for each mile that he completes in an upcoming race; the amount is up to you.  Chris simply asks that you notify him of your intentions and to have your check mailed to him within two weeks of completion the the race.  All checks must be made out to “Wounded Warrior Project”.  Email him for the address: chris@prfitness.net
• Snail-Mail: Mail him a check, made out to “Wounded Warrior Project” and it will be mailed directly to WWP.  This route ensures that your contribution is reflected on his “Funds Raised to Date”.  Checks can be mailed to: PR Fitness, 481 Southpoint Circle, Suite 4, Brownsburg IN 46112.
• Sponsership: Chris accepts sponserships to help offset expenses for races, events, gear, travel, etc.  Sponsership funds allows even more contributions to go straight to WWP.  If you would like to learn more about sponsership for an upcoming race, please email chris at chris@prfitness.net
• Attending BTWG events, classes, workshops: A percentage of all that is collected for BTWG classes, workshops, and other BTWG activities goes straight to WWP.
