Proceeds from the race will go to support M.I.A.S.P. and their mission to raise awareness around mental illness, work to prevent suicide, and support those in need throughout New Hampshire. In previous years, proceeds from events have gone to create a scholarship fund for NH students, an anonymous fund at the Greater Manchester Mental Health Center, as well as support of other local non-profit organizations that support mental health services in our community.
