The Donut Run

We are beyond thrilled to invite YOU to join us for the most extraordinary nonprofit run ever—the Donut Run! We blend our childhood (and adult) adoration for donuts with the spirit of community running to raise awareness for children battling rare diseases. Together, we can revel in the joy and join the fight. We have a "fun" run and "competitive" option along with a day full of coffee, donuts, face painting, live music and more! What do you say?
