A Sporting Event for Women
AN EVENT THAT COMBINES SPORTS AND HEALTH IN A WALKING AND RUNNING RACE/PARTICIPATION EVENT

This event brings together women wishing to face a personal challenge created just for them. Whether you are sedentary, active or athletic, this is an achievable goal for virtually every woman, no matter what your physical condition and personal objectives.

Fundraising: In parallel with the event a fundraising activity is organized.  The goal is to encourage and pay tribute to the education and physical activity of girls. Through a silent auction during the event, on a voluntary basis or through sales of derivative products, everyone can contribute to the LOLA Fund. The money raised will be given to the Foundation called ‘LOLA’ and redistributed as student bursaries to young women involved in a sport and whose commitment deserves support.

The objective of the 2009 fund raising is $6000,00.  In 2008, the event collected $4408.78 in donations, and 9 bursaries where distributed to young women practicing sports!
