Event Description

Join us for the 2nd Annual Sallie Mae 5k benefitting the Sallie Mae Bridging the Dream Scholarship Program. We are partnering with the SoJo Summerfest to allow employees to run in the Sojo Summerfest 5K located at the South Jordan Library on Saturday, June 2. This year’s 5k is dedicated to Charlie Rocha – our leader, mentor, and friend.

Over the last 2 years, 9 inspiring high school students have been awarded $25,000 each from Sallie Mae and we will award 4 graduate students with $20,000 each this spring. This program gives each student an opportunity to overcome financial obstacles that stand in their way of achieving their dreams of higher education. Bridging the Dream brings our mission to life as employees across the company come together to raise the funds to support these students.
