The Kurt Vonnegut Museum and Library (KVML) is off and running…literally. We’re partnering with Beyond Monumental to raise at least $10,000 for KVML programs, including Banned Books Week, VonnegutFest, Teaching Vonnegut, Vonnegut Sessions, and more.

Join us as a racer, volunteer, or financial supporter at the Monumental Marathon, Half Marathon, or 5K Run on November 4, 2017, in Indianapolis.

Racers: Run the very same streets that Vonnegut did as a teenager. Our staff will run with you! SIGN UP NOW for one of the races so you have plenty of time to train and set up/promote your fundraising page. (It’s easy!) Also, when you “fundrace” to support KVML, you’ll receive a discount on your registration.

• Complete sign up form on page 2 and send to Meredith Cummings.
• Next, go to https://www.eventbrite.com/e/cno-financial-indianapolis-monumental-marathon-half-marathon-5k-and-kids-fun-run-november-4-2017-registration-29806433846.
• Choose your race using a discount code for 15% off. Be sure to put the code (IMMVONN) in BEFORE you select your race and hit “Checkout.”
• Once registered, click the “Run for A Cause” button. Then click on https://cno-financial-indianapolis-monumental-marathon-2017.everydayhero.com/us/kurt-vonnegut-memorial-library-inc/get-started to create your fundraising page.
• Send your page to friends, colleagues, and supporters right away, and start raising money for KVML today!

Volunteers: If you’re not a racer, but you want to help on race day,  join our team of crazy, cheerleading volunteers at a water station on event day. Word on the street is Kurt Vonnegut “himself” will be cheering the runners on from the sidelines! (See registration form page 2.)

Supporters: Not a racer and no time to volunteer? Consider supporting a KVML racer. You can support a racer you know, or we can put you in touch with one of our team racers. (See registration form page 2.)
