From the Organizer
The Sanborn Christian School 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run is more than just a race—it’s a community-driven fundraiser that directly supports the heart of our school. Whether you’re running, walking, or cheering from the sidelines, this event brings families, students, and supporters together for a fun and meaningful cause.
Proceeds from the event go to the school’s Auxiliary, which plays a vital role in meeting the needs of both students and teachers throughout the year. From helping fund academic resources and classroom supplies to supporting athletics, extracurriculars, and special projects, the Auxiliary ensures our school continues to thrive in every area.
Every step taken in this race helps provide opportunities, encouragement, and support for our students and staff—making a lasting impact both in and out of the classroom.
