First Annual MyBFF 8.13K

Welcome to the First Annual Fundraising Walk of My Best Friends Foundation.  This foundation raises money to provide support for those that need it while fighting cancer and provide support for families who have lost someone to cancer. The foundation will also raise money to help fund cancer research.

The Walk is in honor of Rod Wittig and Sharon Berryhill.  On August 13, 2020, Rod would have turned 50 years old.  8.13K is approximately 5.0 miles.  What better way to celebrate and honor Rod's memory than to have this first walk use these numbers.  

Each paid registration will receive a t-shirt for the walk.  In person walkers will receive their shirt on the day of the walk. Virtual walkers' t-shirts will be mailed.  We will try to ensure you receive them before the day of the walk, depending on when you register.  YOU MUST REGISTER BY AUGUST 2 IN ORDER TO GET YOUR T-SHIRT ON TIME!! 

If you only wish to donate, please click the Fundraising button above.  

The walk can be done in person at Eisenhower Junior High School, located at 800 Hassell Road in Hoffman Estates, or you can do the walk virtually and on your own time. 

There will be a 50/50 raffle.  Each $10 donation will receive a raffle ticket.  Donations can be made before the day of the walk and raffle tickets will be assigned.    

There will also be a separate raffle prize for all paid registrations. Each registration will receive one raffle ticket.  

Due to Covid regulations, in person walkers are being staggered based on start time.  Registrations for each start time are limited to a certain number to minimize the number of people present at any one time.  Please arrive 15 minutes before your start time to check in and get your swag!!

We look forward to seeing you for this First Annual Walk.  If you have any questions, please email info@mybestfriends.foundation.
