Hellenic Foundation will provide you with a runner page, where you can post your biography, personal message, fundraising goal and photo. You can email a link to your page to family and friends so that they can make a secure, on-line, tax deductible donation. They will automatically receive a PAYPAL receipt and, subsequently, an official thank you letter from Hellenic Foundation for their contribution.
