ABC/25 Get Burbed Challenge
Join us on April 30, 2022 for the 10th Annual
ABC/25 GET BURBED CHALLENGE!
Runners and walkers of all ages and abilities are invited to participate in the ABC/25 Get Burbed Challenge 5K and 1 Mile Run/Walk fundraising event. Join students, staff, families, friends and neighbors and move to raise money for education!
Thanks to the past support of our community and local businesses the event has raised over $100,000 over the course of nine years to benefit the teachers and students of District 25. Each year, there are about 700 participants in attendance representing 9 schools, in which over half of the runners are students.
Since 2018, ABC/25 has partnered with Get Burbed, a local D25 family-owned real estate firm. In return for their long-term financial support of the foundation, they have been granted naming rights to the ABC/25 Challenge.
Where the money goes?
All proceeds benefit the ABC/25 Foundation, an independent nonprofit volunteer organization that raises funds for innovative learning initiatives that are not otherwise supported by district funds. The Foundation will use proceeds from this year’s event to provide funds for educational enhancements to District 25 through special teacher and school grants.
OUR MISSION: To foster Innovation, Creativity and Excellence for the children of District 25
