Greetings HBCU alumni and supporters! We are excited to host our 16th Annual Atlanta HBCU Alumni Alliance 5K Run Walk!
We are looking forward to returning to Piedmont Park on June 24! We will also offer our virtual race options for all of our supporters from around the globe along with the HBCU Alumni Alliance affiliates in Washington D.C. and Philadelphia.
In 2022 we raised more funds for Metro Atlanta students than we ever have! since the inception of our run walk and This year we are looking to continue that trend with the support of our premier sponsor, CareSource.
CareSource is nationally recognized for leading the industry in providing member centric health care coverage. The company’s managed care business model was founded in 1989 and today CareSource is one of the nation’s largest Medicaid managed care plans. Since 2006, the CareSource Foundation has partnered with nonprofits to support the elimination of income and health disparities, provide much-needed services to low-and moderate-income families, encourage healthy communities, develop innovative approaches to address critical health issues, and enhance the lives of a diverse array of children, adults and families. We are proud to partner with CareSource in this mission and invite you to join us as we work together to make a difference in our communities.
This year we are pleased to partner with CareSource to provide two $5,000scholarships to students attending HBCUs. This contribution along with your support will make a huge difference to our students and their families as we work toward reducing income inequity by decreasing the debt students and their families have to incur to pay for a college education.On behalf of our Metro Atlanta HBCU alumni chapters, community and corporate partners, I would like to thank you for your support in “Running for you. Running for them. Running for us.” Without your help we would not be able to support our students, communities and beloved institutions. Thank for your ongoing support to the mission and legacy HBCUs.
With much HBCU Pride!
Dan Ford
