Mass Helps Lebanon Jog-A-Thon

To do our part to help feed the people of Lebanon, Massachusetts can play our part by donating to the World Food Program, the arm of the UN that focuses on food aid. 50% of Beirut was impoverished before this tragedy, which has only damaged the economic engines of the city. 

To help, all you need to do is run.  Until August 18, your goal is to run as many miles as possible, while getting yourself, your friends and your family to sponsor a certain dollar amount for every mile. For example, if I pitch in $5 for every mile, my neighbor pledges $4 and my grandparents pledge $6, I only need to run 1 mile to raise $15 for the people of Lebanon. 

Once you've finished running, you can either collect the money from your sponsors and make a donation to this page, or send your sponsors the link to this page and have them make the donation themselves. Thank you for your support, and all donations automatically go to the WFP!
