Run for Those Who Can’t
Imagine as you prepare and train for a life-changing event such as the marathon what it would be like for yourself or your family to deal with the life changing consequences of an Acquired Brain Injury?
Run (or walk) with us in one of our teams and you will get a free JMB Foundation T-Shirt or Singlet to wear in the event. We will also provide a marquee to support our team members on event day.
If you go the extra mile and fundraise for our cause you will help us to provide therapy hours, purchase enabling equipment, make home modifications, provide carer respite and build infrastructure for young people with catastrophic brain injury.
Runners
The JMB Foundation has again registered 5 teams in this year’s Medibank Melbourne Marathon Festival:
• Bank of Melbourne Marathon
• Flight Centre – Half Marathon
• Coffee Club 10km run

We would love you to join us in our sea of blue t-shirts, as we try to break our ‘500’ team member record. Help us get to ‘600’.

Volunteers
Not running? We still need volunteers to help on the day. As one of the preferred charities for the event we are obliged to provide the organising body with 250 volunteers to run drinks stations and direct runner traffic on the day. If you can help, please email info@jmbfoundation.org.au
