Get Fit For a Good Cause With Your ‘Maids

teamcindy 5k run for research

Seeking a special way to incorporate charitable giving into your wedding plans, but don’t know where to start? Consider making a donation to a preferred charity, instead of spending money on favors; or, perhaps you’d be open to giving up your gown after the big day to a nonprofit retailer whose proceeds go to a meaningful cause.

Still another idea, and a growing trend: enlist your bridesmaids to participate in a fundraising activity and skip the expenses of a shower or bachelorette party. In fact, make it a solid pre-wedding workout in the process! Whether you choose to complete a 5K together or dance your hearts out for a local school’s children’s benefit, there are endless ways to get active with your best girls — AND make a difference.

If you’re in the New York City area, the 4th Annual TeamCindy 5K Run for Research, to be held September 16 at Riverside Park, presents an exceptional opportunity for some bridal party-bonding. The event honors the life of Cynthia Lynn Sherwin, a gone-too-soon tri-athlete, and helps raise funds for the Brain Aneurysm Foundation and a research grant for early detection and prevention.

As TeamCindy 5K Run for Research participants, you and your crew certainly will get to experience something rewarding together; plus, you’ll receive race-day t-shirts and amazing swag bags, including a 5-day guest pass to New York Health Racquet Club.  What’s more, you’ll be treated to a free lunch after the event at Ellington in the Park.

Sounds sort of like a ready-made bridal shower, no?
