Home of Hope Family 5K - 2015
Thank you to all of our participants, volunteers, families, and Ozarks Teen challenge staff for showing up and making our 1st annual Home of Hope Family 5K a success! Over 150 participants ran or walked to fight addiction, support those struggling, and to honor those who have been lost.
Our students and their families felt the love and support of the Ozarks Community and we cannot thank you all enough! Seeing our boys cross the finish line with their families and friends by their sides or cheering them on meant the world to them and to us.
Ozarks Teen Challenge would also like to thank the family of Brendon Dean for their support. Brendon and those we have lost will never be forgotten. We fight on and their memories drive us in this battle against teen addiction. Seeing the love of such an amazing family driving them to continue to help others is an inspiration to us all.
We would also like to thank our amazing sponsors for making this day possible:
Families & Alumni of Ozarks TC
Cox Health
Big Fish Screen Printing
Galleria Engraving
JumpSix Marketing
Over $6,000 was raised to help us build a new Home of Hope Dormitory for our boys and you helped to make that possible. It was a beautiful day and we even had visits from Springfield Batman and Runso the Clown! Our kids ran like champions too and had a lot of fun along the way!
Thank you again for help us to put HOPE within reach of more families battling addiction!
