BIKE
This weekend, more than 9 bikers will trek from Seattle to Portland in the Seattle to Portland Bicycle Classic. These NFE runners have raised more than $17,000, surpassing their goal of $10,000. Check out their fundraising efforts here.
PARTY
Games, prizes, food and fun at the NF Carnival to benefit the Children’s Tumor Foundation in Glen Cove, N.Y. Hosted by NFE Runner Laura Perfetti. Last year, the Perfetti’s and their friends raised $6,075 for research from Carnival proceeds. Check out more information here.

Active Fundraising Page of the Week
Sally Richards
Why we like it: Sally Richards has decided she will be the CEO of NF2. Her active page has become her “formal business plan” as she fights for a cure. Check out how Sally has raised more than $3,000 so far in her training for the Rock ‘n’ Roll Chicago Half Marathon — click here.
