Support Team Lake Aid in the Ascent of La Tournette 2020!
For the third consecutive year, Lake Aid is taking part in the legendary hike/run race “La Montée de La Tournette”. On Sunday 6th September, a team of Lake Aid volunteers will climb the tallest mountain around Lake Annecy. The event starts at Talloires Port (447 metres) and finishes at the summit of La Tournette (2,351 metres).
300 hikers and runners of all levels will take on the challenge this year. Our team will walk or run to the summit, gaining 2,000 meters of altitude, to raise money for Lake Aid. This local charity, run entirely by volunteers, promotes the integration of asylum-seeking and homeless families living in the Annecy region.
Check out the route and other details about the event here.
There are three ways you can help:
1. Join our Team! Please run or hike with us as a Lake Aid Team Member. We welcome all levels of runners and hikers. Train with us, or simply join us on the 6th of September. We ask that you contribute 25€ to the Lake Aid Team and you will receive a beautiful Team Lake Aid t-shirt and buff! Please note this fee does not include the registration fee for La Montée de la Tournette (18€ for runners, 15€ for walkers). Please sign up to the event ASAP via this link as places are limited: https://lvo-inscription.com/monteedelatournette2020
Every cent of the 25€ contribution will go to Lake Aid as we are actively looking for a corporate sponsor for our t-shirts.
As a Lake Aid Team Member, please help us raise funds for Lake Aid by sharing this page with your friends and family.
To join Team Lake Aid please complete the following steps before the end of July:
– donate at least 25€ using the form below; (add Hello Asso Form)
– register for the event at lvo-inscription.com/monteedelatournette2020; and,
– e-mail lakeaid74@gmail.com to let us know you’re joining us.
2. Make a contribution to Lake Aid by donating any amount via the form below.
As an idea:
- 10€ allows us to take young isolated minors on a full-day bike ride with rented bikes;
- 20€ is our contribution to take one child to the 3 Valleys for a day of skiing;
- 30€ means we can take one child to the Secours Populaire Christmas party and give them a nice present;
- 50€ is the cost of a school bag full of all the materials a child needs to start school; and,
- 60€ will send one child on a week-long vacation in summer with one of Lake Aid’s charity partners.
3. Help find us a corporate sponsor to finance our t-shirts!
In order for Lake Aid to put 100% of the proceeds towards helping the children, we are looking for a corporate sponsor that would be able to cover the cost of the team t-shirts! This cost would be around 600€.
If you have any ideas, please let us know!
Thank You for your support,
Team Lake Aid
