Event Description
Join us for the 1st Annual Cantu Solutions Community Run 5K — Running Together, Giving Together!

Our Cause
100% of proceeds from this event will directly support two incredible causes:
- Children with Autism — funding programs, therapies, and resources that support their development and well-being.
- People with Down Syndrome — empowering opportunities that promote inclusion, growth, and quality of life.
Every runner, every walker, every sponsor, and every donation brings us one step closer to a better future for those who need it most.
Whether you're chasing a personal best or walking alongside family and friends, your participation matters. Register today and be part of a community coming together for a cause that truly counts.
