The annual all-ages event benefits The McKenzie Noelle Wilson Foundation, a local nonprofit organization whose mission is to help young people – locally and globally – recognize their full potential. Locally, the Foundation created McKenzie’s Academic Resource Centers (MARCs) to empower youth through education. The MARCs provide free after-school mentoring and tutoring programs to over 300 students living in two local communities and are a place for these students to grow and thrive. Globally, the Foundation built three homes at the Okoa Refuge Orphanage in Uganda, Africa and in partnership with Okoa Refuge, provides medical care, food, shelter, education and love to over 75 children.
Participants can run or walk in this family-friendly event and by signing up with a team of three or more people, the cost of registration is only $15 per person. To register for the event, and for more information, please visit www.mckenziesrun.org.
Immediately following the Run there will be a celebration including live music, face painting, inflatable obstacle courses, refreshments, and autographs with Jaxson de Ville and the Roar cheerleaders.
The 2015 McKenzie’s Run is sponsored by EverBank, The Players Championship, The Jaguars Foundation, Acosta, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and Action News.
