• Please remember:

  The intention for Run proceeds is to fund a project or initiative that participating Non-profit Organizations cannot support under their regular operating budget. The intention is also that Run proceeds NOT be used to cover regular operating expenses that Non-Profit Organizations incur on a daily basis.

  
  Items the Community Foundation considers operating expenses, which would not be funded by Run proceeds, include: Rent/ Mortgage, Utilities, Equipment lease, Administrative expenses (Regular Staff expense), Insurance, Maintenance.
