Running Naked…For Charity?

By now, I’m sure you’ve heard of heard of charity walks, like Relay for Life, and have probably donated to a few clothing drives since your elementary school days.  But have you ever gone streaking for charity?
 

Tomorrow night, the online company, Wiggio, is hosting the world’s largest Nearly Naked Run. The event is bringing together over a hundred thousand college students to donate the clothes off their back to a local homeless shelter and participate in a nationwide run around their campus.  

The Nearly Naked Run is the perfect opportunity to be social, burn a few calories, and give back to your community at the same time! And while the event is already taking place at tons of colleges across the country, there is still time to start a run at your school. So if you’re interested in doing some good and having a blast at the same time, click here for details.
