SUMMARY:Support MAX at the Tamarack Race Weekend
DESCRIPTION:3… 2… 1 🏁💨 \n\n\n\nSlip on your pumps and join us at the Tamarack Race Weekend to fundraise for some new\, exciting programs like the expansion of GayZone and new mental health supports! \n\n\n\nAs our community’s needs have changed and adapted\, so have we. In the last year\, we provided over 600 essential health services referrals for harm reduction and addiction support\, HIV/STI testing\, PrEP/PEP access\, and mental health. Our programs ran stronger than ever\, our health services expanded\, and we implemented several initiatives–like the List–to support and amplify the wellbeing of our community. \n\n\n\nWe are so grateful for all of your support and hope to see you on race weekend! \n\n\n\nSupport MAX Ottawa by: \n\n\n\n\nRunning with us on race weekend;\n\n\n\nFundraising for MAX Ottawa or donating to our JustGiving page;\n\n\n\nCampaigning for MAX on your social media;\n\n\n\nFollowing us and interacting with our posts on Instagram;\n\n\n\nSubscribing to our Weekly Roundup to stay up to date on everything going on with MAX and the local queer events and opportunities in your region.\n\n\n\n\nIf you’re singing up to run: \n\n\n\n\nPick the race you want to run (most of the MAX team are running the 5km\, but props if you can run for longer!) at www.runottawa.ca.\n\n\n\nDo not create a fundraising page through the race weekend registration. Instead\, you’ll have to create your fundraising page separately\, by going through MAX’s fundraising page: justgiving.com/campaign/maxottawa.\n\n\n\nOn the MAX fundraising page\, simply hit the orange “Start Fundraising” button\, add your personal content\, and you’re set.\n\n\n\n\nHelp us reach our finish line!
