YouthLINC Utah Marathon of Service to celebrate our 10th Anniversary!
Calling all Alums, Volunteer mentors, Friends and Family of YouthLINC!
We need you to 'run' our Service Marathon! Here's How:
26 HOURS
Volunteer in your own community - Utah or anywhere! -- 26 hours between August 2008 - April 18, 2009 (the date of our 2009 Tenth Anniversary Celebration at the Salt Palace Grand Ballroom)
$26
Pay the Registration Fee for the Service Marathon, your contribution to building the second decade for YouthLINC! Write a check to YouthLINC now, or wait till our website is up and pay on-line in August 2008.
Raise $260
Sign up at least 10 sponsors at $26 each, or 26 sponsors at $10 each, or 1 sponsor at $260… You get the idea!
Do All Three...
And attend our 10th Anniversary Gala FOR FREE and receive the YouthLINC Tenth Anniversary Commemorative Book filled with the best photos and stories from our alums.
Full Committment - Go the Extra Mile
Get your friends and family to sign up!
Individuals who serve the most hours, raise the most money, and sign up the most friends and family will receive a free trip to Thailand with our Alum group in May 2009
To reach our goal of $260,000 to DOUBLE our program in our second decade -- allowing 250 students to participate and have the chance to become life-time humanitarians -- we need 1000 volunteers to run the Service Marathon -- contributing 26,000 hours of service for our 10th Anniversary.
