Description

On Saturday, April 29, 2017 at 10:00 am, The Boaz Project will hold its 10th Annual Race for an Orphan 5K. It includes family-friendly activities and professional chip timing, all to benefit orphans. Strollers and pets are welcome. This event is a fundraising effort to support our mission: to inspire leaders to care for orphans in their own communities. Currently, The Boaz Project is active in Russia, India, and Kenya providing care for more than 550 orphans. The money raised from this year’s event will help us reach more orphans.

Course Info

As you run or walk to support orphans through The Boaz Project, you will race on Greenwood's newly-completed, paved, flat trail through a park-like setting. When you cross the finish line, the festive atmosphere includes a band, face painting, balloon artistry, massage, and a well-deserved snack.
