Children in the foster care system are often given a short amount of time to pack their personal belongings into a trash bag and head to their next housing arrangement. We all deserve the basic dignity of having a safe place for our belongings and we have organized a run to donate to Together We Rise (togetherwerise.org), a local non-profit organization which helps foster children nationwide.
When you register for this race, you get:
- to run or walk a 5K or 10K in Griffith Park
- a finisher medal
- to decorate a new duffle bag for child in foster care
- a teddy bear, warm blanket, hygienic kit, coloring book, and crayons to fill the duffle bag with
Whether you run 10K's every week or are questioning how hard it would be to walk a 5K, this race will be full of caring and supportive people! Please spread the word - lets help as many foster children as we can!
