ReadyTalk To Host Inaugural 5K Race, 'Walk with Paws' Event
Posted on: Monday, 13 July 2009, 11:37 CDT
DENVER, July 13 /PRNewswire/ -- ReadyTalk, a leader in integrated audio and Web conferencing services, announced today its plans to proudly host the inaugural Race for Charities event. In an effort to promote volunteerism, the race will include a 5K Run/Walk and "Walk with Paws" event, and will take place on August 22 along the Platte River Trail in Denver.
"As an active member of the Colorado business community, ReadyTalk is committed not only to supporting the needs of its valued customers, but also to the local organizations and programs that serve the most disadvantaged members of our neighborhoods," said Scott King, ReadyTalk vice-president.
Headquartered in the heart of Lower Downtown (Lodo), ReadyTalk is committed to bringing awareness to the need for volunteerism, and to empowering, educating and renewing the desire for volunteer efforts in the Denver community. It is in this spirit of giving that ReadyTalk has established a solid reputation of corporate leadership in the local philanthropic arena.
"While there are many local programs deserving of recognition and assistance, this year, all proceeds from the Race for Charities will benefit two Denver-based non-profits, the Young Philanthropist Foundation and Work Options for Women," added King.
The Young Philanthropist Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to engaging youth in philanthropy by creating opportunities for kids and families to give back to their communities, while Work Options for Women is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping homeless and impoverished women learn skills so that they can be successful in the work force.
Recognizing the inspiration that our animals provide, ReadyTalk is proud to invite all four-legged friends to participate during the "Walk with Paws" portion of the event. Prizes will be awarded to winners of both the Men's and Women's age brackets, as well as for "Best Dressed Dog." In addition, all participants will be automatically entered into a post-race raffle that will feature prizes including race memorabilia signed by Denver Nuggets superstar, Carmelo Anthony, premier restaurant gift certificates, and much more!
