Organiser's description
JOIN US for Crossover for Change's Spooky Season 5K run! The mission of Crossover for Change is to foster empowerment, confidence, and leadership in young women in Uganda through the sport of basketball. We believe that providing access to athletics is the key to encouraging future generations to set, strive, and accomplish their goals. In 2020, we hosted basketball camps in Uganda for over 2,000 young women, sharing our passion and lessons learned from sports with them. We have constructed 3 basketball courts across Uganda that have been used by over 6,000 young students and athletes. Currently, we are fundraising to expand our mission into education by building computer labs for students across Uganda.
That's where you come in! We are aiming to raise $5,000.
We are hosting a virtual 5K Halloween fun run from October 26, 2024 - November 2, 2024 and we want you to participate. Since this is a Halloween run, we encourage you to dress up in your best costume and run with us! All of the proceeds go towards a computer lab for students in Uganda.
PRICING:
$20 - general admission
$10 - students (DISCOUNTED RATE with code student24)
$15 - military/first responder (DISCOUNTED RATE with code service24)
PRIZES:
We will be giving away prizes to winners across the following categories: best costume, fastest overall female, fastest overall male, fastest team, and largest donation.
IF YOU DO NOT FEEL LIKE RUNNING, SPONSER A UGANDAN STUDENT!!
If you would like to sponser a Ugandan student, purchase a Uganda Ticket for a Ugandan student at checkout! We will share information about the athlete you are sponsering, so you can be connected with them!
Donations are also encouraged if you do not want to run! Or, if donating just is not in the cards for you, then you can be a huge help by sharing our race/organization on social media. Be sure to tag us on Instagram using @crossoverforchange or use the hashtag #crossover5K. We hope you will join us for our inaugural fundraiser!
