CLICK ON THE KETTLE!

​

DECEMBER begins our drive to assist the Salvation Army - Canton. Run to You Racing / Pro Football Hall of Fame Marathon have been fortunate to keep our doors open during these tough times. We don't need your money this Holiday Season....they do. We deeply appreciate any support you can provide via our VIRTUAL RED KETTLE which will help fund many worthy community programs.

 

Your donation will be matched 100% dollar for dollar during this drive.

 

As a BONUS, if you make a donation please let us know via email (racedirector@hofmarathon.com). We will get one of our Red Fleece Finisher Blankets in your hands as a Thank You gift.

 

Have a Safe and Healthy Holiday Season!
