Run for Weston Color Run
Join us for the Run for Weston Color Run as we come together to raise awareness for Weston’s battle with terminal Krabbe Disease. This family-friendly event is open to all ages and filled with colorful fun as participants are showered with vibrant color powder along the route.
Whether you run, walk, or cheer from the sidelines, every step helps spread awareness and shows Weston and his family that they are surrounded by an incredible community of warriors. Wear your white shirt, gather your family and friends, and help us fill the day with color, hope, and love as we run for Weston. 💙🌈
Be a Warrior. Run for Weston. Raise Awareness.
