The organizers of Sunday鈥檚 Times 91原创 10K are encouraging participants, volunteers and spectators to show their support for the victims of the bombing at the Boston Marathon by purchasing and wearing One Fund Boston stickers.
Proceeds from the stickers, available by donation at the TC 10K Fitness Expo on Friday and Saturday, will assist individuals and their families and friends in dealing with the tragedy physically and psychologically.
People can wear the sticker on their race bib or shirt sleeve.
The fund has been endorsed by the governor of Massachusetts and the mayor of Boston. To date, the fund has raised more than $21 million in public and corporate donations.
The Fitness Expo (and race-package pickup) is from 9 to 11 a.m. Friday for corporate- and sports-team pickup only. Individual runners and walkers can pick up their packages between noon and 6 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. to 6聽p.m. Saturday at the Crystal Gardens, 713 Douglas St. People who are unable to pick up their package at these times can arrange for a friend or family member to do so on their behalf.
To make donations online or for more information on One Fund Boston, go to onefundboston.org. For more information on the TC 10K, go to tc10k.ca.
People can still register for Sunday鈥檚 TC 10K and the 1.5K Family Run at the Fitness Expo on Friday or Saturday.
