Come out and run with the imagine1day in the Chip’s not Dead Yet Memorial Mile taking place on June 20th at 6pm! Certain to be the “funnest charity run alive”!

The imagine1day team will be demonstrating first hand - all of the small (and big) ways in which people can directly support in achieving, imagine1day’s as well as Shannon and Chip Wilson’s, goal of providing primary education to all children in Ethiopia by 2020!

We are looking to find fun, energetic participants who want to contribute in carrying various materials (don’t you worry - nothing too heavy!) and assembling a miniature school at the finish line!

If you are interested in joining the imagine1day team please visit the Chip’s Not Dead Yet Memorial Mile Website (www.chipsnotdeadyet.com) and click on “register here”.

For a registration fee of $25 (all money raised goes to BC Children’s Hospital) you will be greatly contributing to increasing the awareness for the need to empower children of Ethiopia through education and ultimately elevating the communities in which they live.
