A portion of the proceeds will help fund programs that benefit Goodnews to Scholars, Inc. and The RCCG Tabernacle of Restoration Building Project. The event will be held Saturday, June 13th at Van Cortlandt Park in Bronx, NY. The 5K will kick off at 1:15PM followed by the awards ceremony and special vote of thanks to our sponsors at 2:45PM.
