The Office of Student Community Services sponsors numerous initiatives throughout the year dedicated to giving back to our campus and local community. This year, the office will host Glow Run for a Cause to benefit Wishmakers on Campus.

THIS YEAR THERE WILL BE A NEW COURSE FOR THE 5K AND MILE!!

Wishmakers on Campus® is a program to benefit Make-A-Wish® in which college students raise money for local children who need more hope and happiness in their lives. Students rally together to plan and coordinate fundraising campaigns to help a wish come true, the average cost of a wish is $4,400.

The Glow Run features a 5K route and a 1 mile route. All ages and abilities are welcome and have participated! The first 100 participants to sign up will receive a t-shirt. All participants will receive glow sticks and have the opportunity to decorate their shirts with glow paint and markers!
