Framingham Runners Fundraising For National Race

The Framingham High School girls sprint medley relay team of Kristin DeVellis, Jenny Ribero, Zoie Carter, Hilda Kusi and Olivia Rothenberg, have qualified for nationals in North Carolina.

Ten days ago they set up a GoFundMe campaign to raise $3,000. They are very close to their goal but could use some help from the communuity.

As of midnight, they had raised $2,000 from 39 donors.

“We have worked so hard the past few years to try and represent Framingham Girls Track and Field Program as well as we can and we are finally getting the chance to do so. New Balance Nationals are in Greensboro, North Carolina and in order for us to attend we are asking for donations,” states the runners on the crowdsourcing page.

On June 19-21, the National Scholastic Athletics Foundation will celebrate its 25th outdoor national championships in Greensboro, N.C.. The event, known as the New Balance Nationals, features high school teams from across America who qualified by times in track or distance in field.
