You can change the course of history. That sounds a bit epic. Yet we believe this truly captures what we’re about to do together. You can be a part of something that we’ll one day look back on as truly historic.
Will You Join the Movement?: We’re asking you, and an army of people, just like you, to Walk, Run, or Ride to raise funds to fuel RMI’s ministries on the Island of Hispaniola—in Haiti and the Dominican Republic. The funds raised will go directly to fund RMI’s 2 year campaign. Together, we will firmly establish our ministry in the Dominican Republic, launch the Ezra Institute to develop leaders, and rebuild the earthquake destroyed ministry center in Zanglais, Haiti, to support future teams.
What is Our Goal: Our goal is to have 25 participants in 25 locations. This means 625 total participants working together to accomplish something HUGE. We’re asking each participant to commit to raising $1000 or more, but you can choose any amount (If you prefer, you may choose to give all or a portion of your goal yourself). $1000 equals just 10 people sponsoring you at $100 each! 25 participants x 25 locations x $1000 = $625,000!
What Will You Actually Do? During the signup process, you’ll customize your own campaign by choosing your activity (Walk, Run, or Ride), choosing the length of your activity, and setting your own fundraising goal. Your goals are completely flexible.
When Will the Event Happen?: Individuals and teams may choose to Walk, Run, or Ride together, or they may do it individually. We’re asking individuals and/or teams to complete their activity at their convenience during the month of September.
How to Sign Up?: Visit the Hope for Hispaniola webpage, and click on the button to “Sign Up to Walk|Run|Ride“. Once given the option, you’ll be able to choose a team to join. If your church does not have a team, you should choose “Team RMI”. Churches, or groups of people, may still choose to start a team.
