The “Fun Run” fundraising project achieved all its goals by bringing
business together to help its community in a fundraising venture, and to
get to know each other better and support local business in this newly business
park, $9,000 was raised.
Over 45 businesses contributed to the charity fundraiser’s success
donating time prizes, food, water and help on the day. 320 local business
employees participated in the 10k, 5k runs and 5k and walk, and many have
asked that it be an annual event and open to their families as well;
which is now already being planned for next year.
