_The 2021 Deon Lewis Memorial Hope Run - Presented by Admin America:
Life is getting back to normal, and we’re excited to offer our annual 5K run through the natural comforts of Shorty Howell Park. We know you’re over being at home, so come on out in your neon gear and join us! We have a new course that truly exemplifies the life of a single parent in college-fast paced! Single parents face overwhelming barriers to overcome poverty and become self-sufficient. With the economy being what it is, a college education is crucial and almost required for the low-income single parent family to succeed. This course will be a great uphill and downhill course that will be sure to challenge you just as these parents are challenged! It’s a run/ walk event so come out whether it’s your first 5K or you are trying to set that PR!
Make sure you bring the kids for face painting and a fun run.
Proceeds from this event will benefit H.O.P.E, Inc. (Helping Other People be Empowered) which is a tax-exempt 501(c)3 nonprofit organization serving single parents and their families working to obtain a college degree and break the cycle of poverty. For more information about our cause, please visit our website: www.hopbe.org.
