The
six participants in the Rapid Transit Challenge met each other at Regis
High School which is a tuition free Jesuit high
school in Manhattan. The school was founded in 1914 by an
anonymous benefactor and today is supported by the generosity of her
family, its alumni and friends.
Each
of the six participants pledge to donate at least $1 for
each minute that they beat the existing record. The
team is requesting that others join them in making a similar
pledge. For those who already give to Regis regularly, we
request that you only make pledges in excess of what you might
otherwise give to the Annual Fund.
As
of December 31, we received a total of $23.25 in pledges per minute
we break the record. At 87 minutes, this adds up to
$2,022.75. We are still hoping that others who hear about this
record continue to contribute.
If you fill out this
pledge form below, you will be contacted by one of the Rapid Transit
Challenge team members, or the Regis Development Office with
information on how to fulfill your pledge after the ride is
complete:
