The Joe Cassella Foundation is a non-profit organization based out of Leesburg with a mission to offer financial assistance to the families of less fortunate children affected by a medical condition, to reduce the stress of financial concerns related to serious illness and injury, and allow them to better focus on supporting their child.
This year, the race will benefit Gracie Sweet, a 16-month old baby who has an inoperable brain tumor, and the funds raised will be used to cover her medical expenses. The 5K Run/Walk is expected to draw 1,000 participants from the Washington DC Metro area, who will gather for a great cause and enjoy a day of fitness and fun.
Deadline to help sponsor the race has been extended until April 22.
The race will feature:
•ChronoTrack race timing system with the disposable D-tag on an USATF certified course
·One-mile fun run for kids
•Cash awards for top 3 male and female finishers
·Medals for the 1st place finisher in each age group
•Team challenge
•Commemorative ribbons for all Fun Run participants
·Fun post-race celebration with tons of food, music, air brush tattoo artist, balloon animals, door prizes, a silent auction, and more!
