About this race

Welcome to the inaugural Foster the Future 5K, hosted on behalf of Geauga County Job and Family Services. As a department of the Geauga County Board of Commissioners, we provide essential services to support children and families in our community, including raising awareness for the need for foster parents. GCJFS is currently seeking foster families for children of all ages, with the greatest need being for teens and sibling groups.  All proceeds from today’s event directly support the care and well‑being of children in Geauga County custody.

Thank you for being here and making a difference.

Event day registration and pack pick-up will begin at 8:00am with the 5K and 1 mile beginning at 9:00am.
