About Plant A Seed
At Plant A Seed, we're not just an organization; we're a passionate force dedicated to transforming the lives of El Paso's Latinx and underserved communities.
Our founders, Wendy and Miguel Gamillo, are first-generation Mexican Americans who grew up right here in El Paso, they intimately understand the unique challenges faced by our neighbors. Wendy, a former case manager, saw firsthand how traditional social service programs often fell short in addressing complex, systemic issues.
Motivated by these experiences, Wendy took action. She envisioned Plant A Seed, as a powerful force for change, a non-profit that bridges the gaps, and provides comprehensive, holistic support to those who need it most. Her unwavering dedication, boundless empathy, and sheer determination form the bedrock of our organization's mission and values.
At Plant A Seed, we're not just empowering our community; we're sowing the seeds of change and raising awareness about issues that matter. Thank you for showing interest in both the Race Against Human Trafficking and Plant A Seed. Together, let's not just sow the seeds of change but also nurture them to cultivate a thriving and resilient community.
Proper Bib Placement
All participants will be assigned a bib number.
For us to properly time your race, our staff and video camera (if available) needs to be able to read your bib number as you cross the finish line.
- Race bibs must be worn on the outside of your clothing on the front of your jersey/shirt (as shown in the picture to the right).
- Please do not, crimple or fold the bib.
- If you do not wear the bib as requested, your finish may not be read properly, and no time will be recorded in the results.
- You may keep your bib following the race. It does not need to be returned.

Disqualifying participants for using other someone else Bib. Any participant who runs under someone else’s bib will be disqualified and will not be scored. For the safety of our runners, and in case of a medical emergency, it is imperative that the registration data associated with the race number belongs to the person wearing the bib. If race organizers become aware that a runner has participated in one of our events with a bib that is not registered to that runner, both the runner and the person to whom the bib is registered will be prohibited from participating in subsequent Plant a Seed events for a minimum of two years.
