Run To The Best You – Seasonal Community Impact Series

Building Stronger Communities, One Season at a Time

The Run To The Best You Seasonal Community Impact Series is our year-round fundraising initiative dedicated to creating healthier, more inclusive communities through movement, education, and opportunity.

Each seasonal campaign builds upon the last, allowing us to provide scholarships, expand community walking and running programs, support inclusive endurance events, and respond to emerging opportunities throughout the year. Every contribution helps build momentum for the season ahead, ensuring our mission continues to grow as we serve individuals of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.

What Your Support Makes Possible
Funds raised through the Seasonal Community Impact Series may be used to support:

• Participant scholarships
• Community walking and running programs
• Inclusive race registration fees
• Travel and lodging assistance, when appropriate
• Accessibility and participation support services
• Volunteer coordination and event-day assistance
• Program operations that make inclusive experiences possible

Our programs include local community events such as the Atlantic City Marathon Series, as well as destination endurance events, including runDisney race weekends, when opportunities align with our mission and participant needs.

Our Approach
Run To The Best You uses a flexible, mission-driven funding model that directs resources where they create the greatest impact. This allows us to respond to planned programs while remaining prepared for new opportunities throughout the year.

Every season builds the foundation for the next. Support received during our Summer Campaign helps strengthen fall programming, expand scholarship opportunities, sustain community initiatives, and prepare for future inclusive events and experiences.

Real Stories. Real Impact.

Thanks to the generosity of community partners like Faces 4 Autism, individuals such as Grace and Jeremy, two non-verbal autistic young adults, have crossed finish lines they never imagined possible. Their journeys are a reminder that every donation helps remove barriers, build confidence, and create opportunities through movement, mindset, and community.

Our initial goal is to raise $5,000 during this campaign. If we are fortunate enough to reach that goal early, every additional dollar will allow us to support more individuals, expand community programs, and create even more life-changing opportunities. We hope you’ll help us not only reach our goal—but surpass it together.
