Help raise money for HSP and PLS medical research

Join me in supporting real change. Let’s support good in the world and make a difference. Help us to raise funds to find a cure for #HSPandPLS through the Spastic Paraplegia Foundation.

Welcome to the SPF 5K Registration. There are 3 ways to REGISTER:
(1) Register by Donating through the main page “5K Fourth Annual Challenge for SPF” or

(3) Register by Donating to a Team account already created by your family or friends.

See these details for each of the three options:
(1) Register by Donating through the main page “5K Fourth Annual Challenge for SPF” (without creating an account). Click the faded out DONATE button.

DONATIONS:
(1) Registration fees and donations in US$ can be submitted online to the SP-Foundation.org website at http://bit.ly/2QPLQpDSPFDonate (Select One-Time Donation; Apply to 5K Run, Walk, Ride or Roll).

(2) Donations can also be accepted through the Charity GoFundMe to the SP-Foundation at this link: https://charity.gofundme.com/o/en/campaign/find-a-cure-hspandpls-awareness

Cannot Run, Walk, or Roll? Then be creative by calculating the activity time you spend stretching, exercising, or working with a physical therapist. All the time can be converted into a 5K. The average person walks 3.1 miles in about an hour. Whatever you do for physical activity, count the time toward a 5K. Please check with healthcare professionals before doing anything new. Family and friends can help you raise funds by sponsoring your activities. Fundraising can be fun!

Help raise money for HSP and PLS medical research. Start a fundraiser TODAY to benefit Spastic Paraplegia Foundation though a 5K Run, Walk, Ride or Roll! Create a team by recruiting family, friends, and colleagues to participate. Help raise funds by challenging your friends and family to sponsor your activity time.
