Calgary Marathon Charity Challenge: May 29
February 16, 2022 > Events
The Calgary Marathon is a challenging, competitive, and fun event with races designed for every age and ability, from the 5KM Family Walk & Run to the challenging 50KM Ultra. The Charity Challenge is an integral part of this event and has raised over $9 million in Calgary over the past 12 years for local charities.
ARBI is excited to, once again, be registered in the Calgary Marathon Charity Challenge. We are gathering teams of passionate supporters to run, walk and wheel to raise funds and awareness for brain injury and stroke rehabilitation.
Our goal is to raise $10,000 to support programs that allow brain injury survivors to achieve their dreams of re-engaging in the community and living a fulfilling life. Through ARBI’s unique community-based approach, brain injury and stroke survivors can regain lost abilities, increase their independence, and reconnect with their communities.
Run for You. Run for Community.
Join Team ARBI or gather your friends, family, or co-workers and create your own team to fundraise for ARBI and brain injury rehabilitation. You don’t have to be an athlete to join. In fact, most of Team ARBI participates in the 5KM Walk & Run. All you need is a passion for helping brain injury and stroke survivors reintegrate back into the community because that’s what unites us as a team and carries us all over the finish line.
