Description

Arc of Hope, the 501c3 founded to support St. Joan of Arc Uganda School, is hosting a 5K fun run & 1K fun walk to benefit the school founded by Fr. Simon Peter.  Our mission heightens awareness of the need to think outside our local community, and to live in gratitude for our own blessings.  Our goal is to raise $75,000 to support life-changing educational opportunities and community support to approximately 650+ children and families.  Please join us to make this a reality!
