Organiser's Description
male sign Run for Kentucky: Join the Virtual 5K for Tornado Relief
When disaster strikes, our people step up.
We're heartbroken for the communities of London and Somerset, Kentucky, recently devastated by tornadoes. To support the victims and help get critical supplies into the hands of those who need them most, We are launching a Virtual 5K fundraiser and were inviting YOU to join us.
Why It Matters to Us:
One of the owners of Apex Promoz proudly calls Kentucky home, growing up less than an hour from the affected area. Kentucky also holds a special place in the Apex Promoz story our very first race as Apex Promoz was hosted in Danville, KY in November of 2022. Supporting this cause isnt just important, its personal.
Matching Donations:
Thanks to the generosity of a Riverside Church in Fort Myers, FL all funds raised will be matched dollar-for-dollar. That means every dollar you contribute helps us double the impact and send twice the support directly to Kentucky for recovery supplies.
Bonus Giveaway!
As an added bonus, were giving away a special bottle of Wilderness Trail Bourbona distillery-exclusive release that can only be purchased in Danville, Kentucky! This coveted bottle will be awarded to the individual who makes the highest contribution to our fundraising goal. It's a small way for us to say thank you for going above and beyond to support tornado recovery efforts in our home state.
female sign How to Get Involved:
Sign up for the virtual 5K and receive a Kentucky strong t-shirt. Run, walk, bike or hit the gym, whatever you want to do!
