Pillars Inspires 5K/2K Run/Walk
Pillars of Wellness is hosting its second annual 5K/2K event to provide mental health awareness in our community for grief and loss. This year we are partnering with a non-for-profit agency, Erin’s House for Grieving Children, who provide a safe, nurturing, and comfortable environment for children to process their grief. Erin’s house provides services such as peer-support programs, classroom companions, summer programs, camps/retreats, and phone support for children and families navigating a loss.
This year will be a color run!
We will lightly toss colored chalk as participants navigate the course. Our 5K will be a timed race, and our 2K will be non-timed. Perfect for seasoned runners, those looking to start their race journey, or those who want to get your steps in and support a great nonprofit! You can register for our race here:
