The Foster 5k is a race event meant to benefit the Non-profit Challenge for Charity, of which UW-Foster School of Business is an affiliate, and its scholarship recipients include the Special Olympics of Washington, Boys & Girls Clubs, and the University District Food Bank charities. All are welcome to run, walk, or jog the 5K with pride, knowing that proceeds from their participation in the event will go towards the above-mentioned charities. Participants in this event will be assisting UW-Foster in getting points towards winning the "golden briefcase," a recognition trophy for schools with the most charity input per capita among other business school members on the West Coast.
