On August 27, 2010, ParaSport Ontario will launch its new fundraising series - "Play24".  Play24 will showcase a 24 hour wheelchair basketball game that will attempt to set the Canadian record for the longest continuous wheelchair basketball game.

Participants are asked to raise a minimum of $500 to participate in this groundbreaking event.  Registration and fundraising for the event are simple!  Click on the Register Now button below and complete an on-line registration form.  Once your form has been received and processed, you will be sent a link to your own personal fundraising page.  You can forward this link to all your family and friends and they can donate to you on-line.  For people who prefer not to donate on-line, simply forward them a form to complete and they can send their donation directly to the ParaSport Ontario office.  Very easy!
