Where is the money going?

We have partnered with the Salvation Army in order to provide help and resources for local people in need. All the proceeds collected from this run will be donated to the Salvation Army and their cause. The Salvation Army provides a shelter for the homeless and provides them with clothing and support if they need it. Sign up for the low price of only $15 to support the local area today! The first 50 signups recieve a t-shirt as pictured below. Even if you cannot attend the run, there is a donation option on the website that we invite you to use. Thank you so much to everyone who supports this cause!

Shoe Collection

In the past, we have had shoe bins around the town of Morton in order to collect gently used shoes. At the run, there will also be collection bins near the start and finish lines. These gently used shoes will also be donated to the Salvation Army to give to local people in need at their shelter. Please tie the pair of shoes together by the laces and bring as many as possible. No rips or too-worn shoes. Thank you so much to all of the donators so far!
