Friends of Ethiopia Reads in the Bay Area are getting together to run or walk Bay to Breakers together on Sunday May 21, 2017. We are aiming to recruit 100 runners/walkers to raise some sponsorship from friends to support Ethiopia Reads literacy programs for children in Ethiopia.

Everyone had a wonderful time over the years getting out for some exercise, watching the fun and frolics of Bay to Breakers and then meeting up afterwards for a picnic in Golden Gate Park. We got great support from donors, local businesses for sponsorship and walkers and runners and have raised between $9,000 and $20,000 over the years. This time, we are asking participants to aim to raise $100 each by getting a few friends or coworkers to sponsor them for a great cause. We also have a generous $5,000 matching donation so if we can get 100 runners raising $100 each, we will raise $15,000 for Ethiopia Reads!
