"We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give." -Sir Winston Churchil
In 1999 we started "Team Taras" with 12 people to walk in the Revlon Run Walk, 5K, to raise money and awareness about Breast and Ovarian Cancer.
In 2000 we took our 1st team picture. In 2001 we started creating shirts for the team (designed and ordered for FREE distribution) by Dr. Ian Taras. In 2002 we started renting (FREE for team members) busses. You can see some pictures below.
Our team has seen amazing growth and for 2010 & 2011 we've been over 250 people strong each year! We've raised over $400,000 over the last decade and that's been over $50,000 annually since 2007. We've been in the top 5 fundraising teams &/or top 5 fundraising individuals since 2007 which includes hundreds of teams and over 50,000 participants per year! In 2011 on our team we had the #1 fundraiser for the entire event!
Now, like a parent, we are proudly watching teams & sponsors spin off to form their own teams! Thank YOU to everyone who has participated in some way, over the last decade. It's always the day before Mother's Day in May... Won't you consider joining us next year?
