About this race

The team at Project 99 invites you to join us for the Lights for Life 5K, our signature mental health and suicide awareness campaign. This year’s event continues our mission to shine a light on suicide prevention and bring the conversation "out of the dark." Your participation helps us spread hope, raise awareness, and ensure that no one feels alone in their struggles. By running, walking, or supporting this 5K, you are directly contributing to our efforts to educate local students and the broader community about mental health and suicide prevention. Project 99 Play for Life, Inc., is so grateful for the generous support that allows us to make an impact today and grow our mission for the future. All additional donations are tax-deductible and will help us expand our educational outreach, keeping students engaged and encouraging them to "stay in the game" and play for life. In addition to participating in the race, we encourage youth to get involved behind the scenes, with opportunities to volunteer in event planning, preparation, and execution. Together, we can continue to build a community where mental health is prioritized, and no one is left in the dark. Let's bring hope, awareness, and prevention into the light.
