Charity Run/Walk Fundraiser
Run/Walk With Raleigh Soroptimists May 14!
We are excited to invite you to join us in person on May 14, or virtually May 7 – May 14, for a run/walk to support the women and girls aided by Soroptimist International of Raleigh! For each 5k or 8k registration (in-person or virtual) completed through the unique Soroptimist link, our organization receives $10.00.
The in-person event takes place at the Wake Med Soccer Park in Cary, and the virtual event takes place anywhere you like! And for those who don’t like to run, you can walk, skip, cartwheel, or cover the distance any way you please! We are participating in hosting this event as part of the Charity Distance Festival, which includes a number of Triangle charities.
Please share with your friends, family, and anyone else you think might be interested in supporting Soroptimist programs (or in participating in a fun race). As you promote and participate in this event, please remember to #SIRaleighRuns!
