Giving a hand up, not a hand out.
At times, a hand out is the only thing that helps, but our mission is to give a hand up. Giving a hand out sustains you for the day where a hand up will sustain you for life.
Our mission is to raise project funds for the Hillside Wesleyan Church mission team to take to Haiti. The mission team visits a village in Babaco outside the capital of Port au Prince. We also travel to the island of LaGonave. When our team is there, we bring supplies with us, but we also use the funds raised during this annual run to buy supplies in the places we visit. We keep the money where it is intended.
We teach the men and women skills that empower them physically and mentally. We teach them skills that they can use to further their financial wellbeing at home so they can provide for themselves and their growing families.
This year, we also have the privilege to purchase the finisher race medals from Papillon Marketplace in Haiti. A wonderful organization that hires Haitian Artisans. This employment helps provide a better life for themselves and their families.
Our mission doesn't stop there. Our local mission is to help our community at home by introducing you to a fun, family friendly, active event for everyone. We want to bring you outside again. We want to remind you what racing your friends felt like. We want to remind you what running in the woods feels like.
We want you to be free. Feel free. You are free.
