Now is the time for us to come together...
by staying apart.
Now is the time for us to help local nonprofits which have seen their donations decrease when the needs in our community are greater than ever.
Join together with runners and walkers all over the country in supporting their local charities and organizations.
THIS EVENT BENEFITS:
75+ LOCAL Non-profit organizations in our community!
100% of your race entry fee goes to The Volunteer Center to keep mobilizing volunteers in this time of need!
The Human Race 2021 is the 27th annual fundraiser for the Volunteer Center of Greensboro. This is a virtual 5k timed run and 1-mile fun run/walk that allows participants to raise money for their favorite nonprofit!
This event allows participants to raise money for their favorite nonprofit (agency, school PTA, church, etc..). The Volunteer Center takes care of all of the planning, and has managed the race since 1994, raising over $5 million for our community! Our goal this year is to raise $150,000 for participating nonprofits!
The Human Race is a unique way for our community to come together:
- About 100 different nonprofits form teams and recruit members to fundraise for their missions
- Dozens of companies form teams and their employees can choose the cause they are most passionate about
- Every registrant gets a fundraising page. Once you register, you will have your special link and you can share with those who want to support and donate.
Location: Anywhere you choose!
Time: You can run, walk, roll anytime between May 3 - June 5 and log your time on the ITS YOUR RACE app! Tune in to see the virtual program on June 5, 2021 at 10am. You can tune in by visiting www.volunteercentertriad.org
