BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND

Our beloved Lace Up Son 5K is back May 31-June 6! Presented by American Airlines, our virtual race is a socially responsible way to bring the community together while remaining apart. In the spirit of the unprecedented times our world is facing, the Steve Smith Family Foundation is raising critical funds for COVID-19 relief provided at our Smith Family Wellness Center - a free medical and counseling center in Charlotte that provides health services for uninsured and underinsured, low-income residents in our city.

We need your help! With the health of our patients at the forefront, based on local, state and national mandates, the Smith Family Wellness Center has remained opened in order to continue to provide vital services to a population of our neighbors that are more prone to COVID-19 hardships and the effects of living in a pandemic. Every dollar raised during the Lace Up Son Virtual 5K will help us care for the growing needs. Clinic services include, but are not limited to medical, pediatrics, counseling, dental care and vision.
