Mellow Yellow Lemon Run was created as a fundraising effort for enrichment programs for Sunshine Christian School in Alamosa, CO. SCS decided to also pay some of that fundraising effort forward. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, so in recognition of this, SCS has decided to donate 50% of the profits from all sponsorships and racer registrations to this cause.
