Run for Gus Kicks Off on in July
Neighborhood: Lincoln Park
Chicago, IL 60614
United States of America
I've been interested in volunteer opportunities associated with Children's Memorial Hospital for years, and I am always especially eager to help at the Annual Run for Gus. Located at 2300 Children's Memorial Plaza in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood, CMH, in conjunction with the Young Associates Board, will host the 9th Annual Run for Gus, which helps raise money for pediatric patients stricken with brain tumors.

My employer is participating in the corporate sponsorship program for the event, and therefore is asking for our help. Over 1,000 participants will join in a 5K run and Fun Walk at the Diversey Harbor, also located in Lincoln Park.

Not only are corporate sponsors needed for the Run, anyone who can volunteer their services, items or time is appreciated. In addition to volunteering for the Run for Gus, which will be held on Thursday, July 28, 2011, Children's Memorial Hospital always welcomes volunteers to help at the actual hospital.

If you want more information on how your company can participate in the 9th Annual Run for Gus, call 773-880-4000, or visit the Children's Memorial Hospital website.
