Walkabout Runaround 2011 June 11th - Any Time - Any Place - Any Distance
Want to help Committed to Freedom raise some much needed cash? We knew you did! That's why we're declaring June 11th our First Annual Walkabout Runaround. Here's how it works:
- You go for a walk or a run on June 11th. (Bicycling or Swimming works too!)
- Set a fund raising goal to know how many sponsors and miles you'll need to meet it.
- You ask your friends and family to sponsor you per mile (or kilometer) and let them know how many miles (km.) you plan to walk or run.
Your friends and family - who will be overjoyed at this opportunity to support a cause that is close to your heart - will commit to sponsor you and then send in their tax deductible sponsorship to Committed to Freedom or give it to you send it in for them.
This logo will be on your Walkabout Runaround T-Shirt that we'll send after we receive your $15 registration! You'll look GREAT wearing it as you walkabout or runaround!

Where
Anywhere on planet Earth - Your Choice!Go it alone or organize a group. Train for a personal distance goal or just get out there and do it. Doesn't matter what time. Doesn't matter where. We've set a goal of raising $10,000 on June 11th if enough of our friends do this simple thing for us. We'll send a "spiel" to help you get sponsors, a registration form to complete so we know that you're going to walk or run and what your personal fund raising goals are, a spread sheet to help you keep track of who your sponsors are and how much they're committing to, and our deep and abiding gratitude.
So come on! Mark your calendar, get off the couch, put on your shoes, and walk or run to help Committed to Freedom!
By the way, a Walkabout is a spiritual journey undertaken by Australian Aborigines. That exactly what Committed to Freedom is all about. We help people on their spiritual journeys beyond abuse. We loved that idea so much that we hijacked the Walkabout notion and applied it to our First Annual Walkabout Runaround!
Last year, Andrea – one of our board members – ran a personal half-marathon in New York City's Central Park and raised over $1,000. I hope you feel inspired to join our First Annual Walkabout Runaround!
$10,000 is an easy goal for us to reach if everyone commits to do this for us on June 11th! Once we receive your registration ($15 to cover the shirt and shipping), we'll send you a Walkabout Runaround t-shirt (see the logo above) and a Committed to Freedom wrist band!
Come on!! We REALLY need your help and what a GREAT way to do that! (Plus, the shirt is awesome, too!!)
