Ronald McDonald House Supports Children in Chicago Marathon

 

Based in San Diego, California, Enviso Capital is an independent financial services firm with a focus on wealth management and alternative investments. Employees at Enviso Capital work with several kid-friendly nonprofit organizations, such as Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC).

The mission of RMHC is to provide fundamental resources and quality health care to children and families. One way RMHC raises money for these causes is by participating in the annual Bank of America Chicago Marathon. In its first year in 2006, Team RMHC, which consisted of 31 runners and team founder Bob Marshall, raised $39,000 in donations. Nine years later, the 2015 team raised a staggering $1.18 million. This year, Team RMHC aims to recruit 950 runners and raise a minimum of $1.5 million.

Those interested in representing RMHC in the Chicago marathon will receive free guaranteed entry, as well as a Team RMHC running shirt and customizable donation page. Runners also can participate in RMHC’s marathon training programs prior to the race. On race day, Team RMHC members can visit the Team RMHC hospitality tent for snacks, restrooms, massages, and entertainment.
