ALL Race proceeds benefit Handicap Accessibility
Operation Yellow Ribbon, the organization we have collected for in the past, is winding down its “morale boosting care package business” operations and will no longer be accepting care package donations by the time we hold our race. Thank you for your support of this organization over the past years. Since 2012, Operation Yellow Ribbon has shipped almost 700,000 lbs of goodies and hygiene items that we take for granted here at home to countries in the Middle East where these items are not easy to access. All of your donations in years past have contributed to that number.
