Organiser's Description
WHAT
The Love is a Verb Road Race is in its 1st year and was started as a fundraiser for the *8th Day Clean." 8th Day Clean was established in 2017 to assist young people, in 3rd World Countries, with education and a self-sustaining skill to promote financial stability. We seek to radically improve the pace and depth of growth in the spiritual and physical health of communities in the developing world by transforming the way that the Body of Christ engages in global missions. 8th Day Clean exists to instill dignity, strength, and worth in women struggling in extreme poverty environments so that they can dream and laugh at times to come.
