SneakerWeek

Oct. 10-14th is Sneaker Week; Donate $1/Day to Wear Sneakers to Work!

Under Armour, Inc. and the Baltimore Running Festival have teamed up to raise money and awareness to help outrun breast cancer.

Donate $1 a day from October 10-14 to be able to ditch your high heels and dress shoes and wear your sneakers to work! All proceeds benefit The Tyanna Foundation, one of Under Armour's Power in Pink partners. Under Armour created the Power in Pink campaign to raise funds for breast cancer research and to educate the public on the importance of physical activity in battling the disease.

The Tyanna Foundation is Baltimore based and comprised of 100% volunteers.

Both individuals and companies can make a donation. Donations can be made online or via check.

It's a great way for your colleagues, friends, and family to support you in this year's BRF. It would also be a great way to show solidarity for any of your co-workers and family members affected by breast cancer.

Please check out our website www.sneakerweekbaltimore.com for all the details. You can download a great flyer and pin-up to show your support. We suggest circulating the flyer throughout your office and to all of your contacts.

Please promote through your own Facebook page and Twitter accounts as well so we can leverage social media and ultimately raise a lot of money for this great charity.

Last year BRF raised more than $1M for charities in one year for the first time. Let's set our own "PR" this year and surpass that # with huge participation in Sneaker Week!
