10,000 runners participated in the annual Spring Lake Five Mile Run on Saturday, May 29th, 2010. The Front and Center Fund committed to donate all of the money raised through their team in the Spring Lake Five to Embrace Kids Foundation. We are thrilled at the results as the limited number of participants (only 25) raised over $36,000 to benefit the foundation. This is the 3rd year that The Front and Center Fund participated in the Spring Lake 5 fundraiser, raising over $60,000 for Embrace Kids over the last three years. Due to the overwhelming success of this year’s fundraising, we are thrilled to announce that we will be establishing The Front & Center Scholarship Fund, benefiting pediatric cancer survivors and current patients that are part of the Embrace Kids Family. With all of the wonderful programs & services that Embrace Kids provides, this scholarship fund fills a void that Embrace Kids has been trying to fill, but has lacked the dedicated funding for, UNTIL NOW! We couldn’t be more proud of and thankful to everyone that has supported and contributed to this year’s event.
