RunWild Charity Organizations

Did you know?

100% of the profits raised by the RunWild Leading Edge Marathon go directly to Edmonton’s Zebra Child Protection Centre and St. Albert’s Senior Citizen’s Club. We feel these are very important organizations to support and we hope that you can help us reach our goal of raising $100,000.

The $5 Challenge

For all race participants, we’ve set the challenge to collect $5/km from your pledges, but even $1/km would help our charities significantly. By securing pledges from your family, friends and colleagues, every RunWilder can help to eclipse our $100,000 fund raising goal. Every dollar counts, and those pledges who donate more than $10 will receive a tax-deductible receipt.

Zebra Child Protection Centre

Edmonton’s Zebra Child Protection Centre, the first centre of its kind in Canada, enables our community to respond to child abuse with a professional,
compassionate and highly integrated program of healing and justice.

The centre integrates a multi-disciplinary community of professionals—Edmonton Police Service, Alberta Children’s Services, Crown Prosecutors, Child at Risk Response Teams, medical and trauma screening professionals and volunteer advocates—in a child centred environment that nurtures the abused child and uses
all the wisdom of its partnership to see that justice is done. The multi-disciplinary
team allows for streamlined, thorough and expert investigations, interventions, prosecutions and supports. Through their own resources as well as alliances within the community, Zebra provides children and their non-offending parents and guardians with essential social, medical and mental health services and supports.

St. Albert Senior Citizen’s Club

The St. Albert Senior Citizens’ Club is an organization of senior citizens committed
to the support of, and fellowship with, seniors in the St. Albert community and surrounding area. The existing membership is over 600 strong. Programs and services extend far into the community through collaboration with the City of St. Albert, FCSS, other non-profit agencies, schools, seniors facilities and community organizations.
