Description

We are organizing the second annual Runaway Bridesmaids 1-mile run in Hoboken, NJ on Saturday, September 27th to help fight the escalating problem of human trafficking.  What sets our team apart is that we’ll be wearing recycled bridesmaid, prom, or cocktail dresses and collecting pledges to raise money to fight human trafficking. Yes, even the guys are wearing dresses—ladies you probably have extra ones gathering dust in your closets that you can lend to them!

We really need your help to change lives and help break the cycle of human trafficking. Here are three super quick and easy ways that YOU can make a difference:

  1. Donate to the Cause. Visit Crowdrise.com/runawaybridesmaids and hit the donate button. Any amount you can give helps us in the fight to stop human trafficking.  
  2. Register to Run or Walk. Runners (guys included!) are invited to wear sneakers and a fancy dress and sign up for the 1-mile run in Hoboken, New Jersey on September 27, 2014. Register at http://www.active.com/hoboken-nj/running/distance-running-races/4th-annual-hoboken-pump-and-run-and-5k-2014?int, select Runaway Bride 1-mile Fun Run (third option down). Proceeds from race registration are given to Airline Ambassadors International to sponsor an anti-trafficking training program at Newark airport, a major hub of sex trafficking.
  3. Join our Fundraising Team.  For the chance to win a free trip to Haiti, Guatemala, or Colombia (donated by Airline Ambassadors), take a minute to sign up to fundraise for the cause by joining the team on Crowdrise.com/RunawayBridesmaids and messaging your own friends and family to support Runaway Bridesmaids. 
  4. Join us at the afterparty at Little Town NJ for drink specials and more! The address is 310 Sinatra Drive Hoboken, NJ 07030 201-716-7070

PREVIOUS RESULTS
The premiere Runaway Bridesmaids race took place in 2012 as part of New York City’s famous Fifth Avenue Mile, and those runners raised nearly $11,000 to help fight human trafficking. Our goal is to beat that amount in 2014.
