The 11th Annual Butterfly Foundation’s 5K Run/Walk is in the books. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the original Run date had to be changed, and it became a virtual run. The number of runners and walkers was down slightly, but it was a huge success because of the generous sponsorship of so many businesses and individuals.
There were 385 registered runners this year with 343 in the 5K and 42 in the kids’ 1 Mile Fun Run. As the Foundation’s major fundraiser, the Run generated $84,000 this year in sponsorship money. This is a tremendous amount considering the downturn in the economy. The Butterfly Foundation is extremely grateful to everyone who supported the Foundation so generously this year.
ALL sponsorship money goes directly to the families the Foundation serves in our local area. Since the Foundation’s beginning in November 2007, it has served 304 children’s families with financial grants of $760,940. The money is granted for transportation costs for medical travel and for help during extended hospital stays for children who have life-threatening or life-altering conditions. The Foundation could not do this without the very generous gifts from donors and sponsorships of the various fundraising efforts during the year.
The 12th Annual Butterfly Foundation’s 5K Run/Walk is scheduled for Saturday, June 5th, 2021. Put the date on your calendar and plan now to become a partner with The Butterfly Foundation!
