Description
Join us for the VASS-A-THON at the end of February! This is a fundraiser for all VASS students and volunteers that includes making pledges for participants and the money raised helps VASS in all its activities. In response to current weather conditions affecting snow sports, our students and volunteers have the option to engage in alternative physical activities such as skiing, snowboarding, hiking, skating, walking, dancing, running, or swimming, and they can complete as many laps as possible in their favourite chosen activity. Each participant chooses how many laps they want to complete, but they need to keep track of their lap numbers. Participants seek pledges for each lap completed, supporting Vancouver Adaptive Snow Sports’ mission. Once the laps are recorded, those who pledged will receive an email after the events with a payment link. These alternative activities also offer a great opportunity to socialize and chat with others as you get your exercise for the day!
Make a pledge to empower adaptive sports and our incredible participants!
To make this adventure even more fun we will be holding a TRACK Event on Feb 25 from 1-3pm for those that would like to come and do laps of a track together with VASS friends: walking, running or wheeling. Details to follow soon.
$50,000
is our goal to celebrate our 50TH Anniversary
Follow these easy steps to set up your own pledge page….
Set up a personalized page on SNOWLINE so you can collect pledges from friends and family, for how many laps you complete during the week of Feb 25 – March 2. Your pledges can also be a straight donation amount if that is easier for people. Click here to get started. There is a video below to show you all of the steps.
At the bottom of your completed page, there is a link you can add to emails or social media feeds to promote the awesomeness that you are partaking in. This makes it easier to collect pledges!
Complete as many laps as you can during the VASS-A-THON period and remember to go to your pledge page and enter in the number of laps.
After the event, VASS will send out emails to people who have pledged and ask them to fulfill their commitments to you. People will pay with credit cards and get tax receipts issued.
