MAF Week (and the 10th annual Spin-A-Thon) is a fundraiser for the foundation that increases access for youth to participate in athletics and education. Join us as we come together for community, movement, and a shared purpose. Everyone is welcome – MAC members, friends, family, community, colleagues, teammates, and even businesses!
The Spin-A-Thon has been a fundraiser for the Multnomah Athletic Foundation for many years. It serves as a way to provide funding for the grant and scholarship programs. This year’s event, called MAF Week, has four ways to participate: spin classes, join additional activities to get moving through out the week, an online auction and a party to celebrate it all.
A terrific opportunity for your support is the 2023 online auction. The Auction features some amazing experiences and fitness opportunities. Bidding will be open from Mar 12 – Mar 18.
100% of the event proceeds go directly into the community to get kids moving, learning and dreaming about the future. The Foundation’s board of directors underwrite the expenses to make this promise a reality.
