Thank You To All 2010 EIF Revlon Run/Walk Supporters!

THANK YOU TO ALL 2010 RUN/WALK SUPPORTERS!

On behalf of the Entertainment Industry Foundation, REVLON, and the 2010 Run/Walk Beneficiaries and Sponsors, we’d like to shout out the biggest Thank You to all of the participants, volunteers and donors taking part in the 17th Annual EIF Revlon Run/Walk For Women!Tens of thousands participated this year and many more made contributions of all sizes, united with the common goal of fighting women’s cancer. Your participation was magnanimous and we are truly grateful. Together — we will find a cure!

FUNDRAISING — KEEP AT IT — DON’T STOP NOW!

You still have time! You have until 5:00 PM PST on Friday, June 11th to earn one of our amazing Fundraising Awards. Raise $250 and receive an EIF REVLON Run/Walk Embroidered Sweatshirt, or raise $5,000 or more and receive a $500 Macy’s Gift Card. There are many awards in between as well: EIF REVLON Run/Walk Embroidered Gym Bag, Fleece or Jacket, or an official EIF REVLON Run/Walk Apple® iPod® Shuffle or Nano. Donations sent in up until 5:00 PM PST on Friday, June 11th will still qualify for awards. Visit our website to check out all of this year’s Fundraising Awards.*

Follow-up with those you’ve solicited donations from but didn’t yet receive a response. People’s intentions are in the right place, but we can all get sidetracked with our busy lives. Reach out to your friends and family again — this time send them photos and let them know all about your personal experience with the 2010 Run/Walk. Motivate them to finally take the time to make their important donation!

It’s essential to ask all your donors if their employers have a Matching Gift program. Many companies will match donations made by their employees to qualified non-profit organizations. Think about it — it’s the potential to increase (even double!) your fundraising goal! 

* To qualify for a fundraising incentive award, all donations must be received by 5 pm PST on Friday, June 11, 2010. Awards are not cumulative — only one award is granted per participant. Company matches do not count toward fundraising award totals.
