MAF Week, with the 11th annual Spin-A-Thon, is our fundraiser that fuels 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. Starting last year, we expanded to MAF Week to include and encourage participation by more people!
Join us for one event or everything!
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.
