Join us for a fun-filled Cocoa 5K to benefit New Foundations Home for Children!
Based in Anderson, New Foundations was founded in 1974 and serves foster and at-risk children and families throughout South Carolina. New Foundations offers in-home family preservation services, foster home services, and residential services, all to help children and families heal from trauma and other mental health challenges. New Foundations is a nationally accredited, nonprofit 501(c) (3) organization. We are committed to securing the future for children and families, whatever it takes!
The course is a timed event covering mostly paved paths throughout the Anderson Sports and Entertainment Center complex. This event is rain or shine but may be canceled in the event of severe weather. We anticipate that registration will open in October.
We welcome and encourage all participants. Whether your goal is to race for first place or to enjoy time with friends or family, we would love to have you join in to support the children and families of New Foundations!
