Your race entry = helping those in need
All proceeds will benefit those in need in our surrounding communities
Who is Suburban Service League?
SSL is an all-woman volunteer organization that has been in existence for 58 years. Through fundraising efforts, they give 100% of funds back into the communities of those in need.
During 2020 they worked with 57 organizations, 16 individuals, and 4 schools funding close to $95,000.
SSL also takes a "hands-on" approach by volunteering at the organizations which they support. In their efforts, they touch the lives of those who experience homelessness, cancer, disabilities of various kinds of all ages and gender, senior citizens, those suffering from domestic violence, sex-trafficking, mental health issues, low-income & at-risk families, un-employed & underemployed. They also support surrounding food pantries. They believe in education and grant scholarships to women in local schools and support organizations that provide experiences that are not typical for many.
Because of the need during the pandemic SSL is adding a 5K to their fundraising efforts in order to help more individuals who are in greater need.
