The 8th Annual HOT CHOCOLATE RUN

WEBS is a yearly sponsor of the Hot Chocolate Run and this year the staff wanted to get involved personally. Although this event has been regularly attended by employees we wanted to go as a team this year, complete with t-shirts! What better way to fuel our love of charitable events and team building than to pool our resources and do it together?! I’m hoping we can convince a large contingent to train to walk and knit, how fun would that be?

The Hot Chocolate Run raises funds for Safe Passage, the Hampshire County organization providing shelter, counseling, and advocacy services to women and children who have experienced domestic violence.  This event is Safe Passage’s largest fundraising event.

Want to get involved? We will have a team fundraising page available at  www.PledgeReg.com, listed under team WEBS. Learn a little bit about where your money will be going by following this link http://safepass.org/HCR/.

I hope you’ll consider offering support to such a worthwhile organization and helping us meet our fundraising goal. All money raised goes to support Safe Passage’s counseling, advocacy and shelter services, and all contributions are tax deductible. Donations will be collected until Sunday, December 4, which is race day.

Thanks for all your support!

    I’m feeling a wee bit challenged at the moment.  Where the heck do we donate?  This sounds like a wonderful cause and I’d love to sponsor the WEBS team.  I tried looking at the main HCR page, no luck.  The PledgeReg site looked like it was for participants instead of donators.  

    Help!

    Hi there Cait! If you go to the PledgeReg.com website it should show you a page with several fields. At the top should ask “Looking for your friends fundraising page.” You can simply type in WEBS into the “Team” field and hit search. This should bring you to a list of participants. Simply click on one and you will be at an obvious place to donate. Let us know if this brings you any problems.
