Super Mentor Hanako
Welcome to the team! We are excited to assist you with your fundraising efforts this season. We have all been where you are and know how challenging fund-raising can be. Use our knowledge to help make your fund-raising a success.
Your mentor is your every day contact for basic questons. We will help you brainstorm fund-raising ideas, set your expectations as to what will work and what may not, and also tell you what to expect from your training. We will be available via phone and email and will attend 50% or more of the scheduled training and events.
 Brant and Hanako Wilson
Hanako joined TNT because
I got involved with Team in Training in February of 2005. I had
recently moved to Houston, and convinced my boyfriend (now husband)
Brant that we should run a marathon in Alaska. I was worried about the
training, since I had never run more than 4 miles at one time - and
didn't even really like running. Brant was worried about the
fundraising. It turned out neither of us needed to worry. It took work
- but we raised over $11,000 and both completed the marathon. I want
you all to know that you can do this - Brant and I grew up in the same
(small) hometown and had just moved here, and we still did it. The key
is to approach fundraising from as many angles as you can.
Their TNT experience
Thankfully, when we started TNT, we had no personal connection to the
mission. Since then, my uncle was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma - and is now in remission. The people that we've have met through this program kept me coming
back even before I had a personal connection. Through the season you will make friends - and also new
connections to the cause. We loved our TNT experience so much - we want
you all to have at least as good a time as we did. Whether you're
worried about the training or the fundraising - we are here to help you
through this.
