The 30a 10k Inc will donate an amount to each charity that is directly proportional to the amount of volunteer hours provided by that charity to the race.
RULES FOR SERVIING AS AN OFFICIAL 30A 10K CHARITY PARTNER include the following:
VOLUNTEERS
Each charity must fill a minimum of 40 volunteer slots during packet pickup and race day.
The amount of funds disbursed to the Charity will be as follows:
o Charity fills 40 or MORE volunteer slots = Charity receives 100% of their allocation
o Any charity filling fewer than 40 slots will be given funds on a sliding scale calculated as X/40;
o For example a charity filling 30 slots will be given 30/40 = 75% of their allocation.
Provide the 30A 10K with the names, contact numbers and email addresses of their volunteers.
Provide 10 volunteers who will take and complete the Walton Co Crowd Management Certification class. The 30A 10K will cover the cost of the course.

Write two stories/blog posts that both the Charity and the Race can promote online.
The Charity must provide one story with descriptive photos explaining how partnering with the race will help their cause. This narrative is due by August 1.
USE OF FUNDS
The Charity must use the funds given by the 30A 10K for the effort as described in the application
A post-event report must be submitted within 60 business days after the event that includes pictures and a description of how the funds were used.
