The mission of the Migraine Research Foundation (MRF) is to raise funds for Migraine research. Every donation moves us a step closer to learning migraine’s secrets and, ultimately, to finding a cure. All our operating costs are underwritten, so your donation goes directly to fund migraine research.

MRF has 5 guaranteed entry places for the ING New York City Marathon on Sunday, November 7, 2010. To secure a place, you must raise or donate a minimum of $3000 to MRF.

Join Team MRF and receive:

• Guaranteed entry into the ING New York City Marathon
• MRF T-shirt
• Assistance setting up a personalized website where your friends and family can donate in your name, and you can track your fundraising progress
• Form letter/email for you to send to potential supporters

Team MRF members' commitment:

• Commit to raise or donate a minimum of $3000 by November 15, 2010
• Pay all registration fees to New York Road Runners Club. These fees do not count towards your fundraising commitment and are your responsibility to pay.
• Provide MRF with a credit card and $50 deposit at time of acceptance. This payment will be considered your first donation towards your $3000 pledge.
• Acknowledge that the remaining pledge balance must be paid in full by November 15, 2010. If we do not receive a minimum of $3000 in donations made in your name by then, MRF will charge the remaining balance to your credit card.
