Hop Into Spring 5K - Denver

​The Hop Into Spring 5K is seeking a charity partner for this exciting event. This collaboration offers a fantastic opportunity to raise awareness about your organization's mission while generating much-needed funds to support your cause.

Make a Difference as a Charity Partner with Five Star NTP.

Imagine hundreds of athletes lacing up their shoes, crossing the start line, and knowing every step they take is helping your cause. That’s the power of becoming a Charity Partner with Five Star NTP.

As our official Charity Partner, your organization (or an individual in need) will be in the spotlight. We’ll feature you on our website, registration page, and social media — donations collected through the race go straight to you. No fees. No cuts.
Your only obligation will be to provide 4-6 volunteers on race day and help promote the event within your circle of influence.

For more information about being the Charity Partner, contact charity@fivestarntp.com.

Volunteering for this race can earn you a $50 Visa Gift Card.

Here's how it works: 1) You sign up to volunteer on the Volunteer page. 2) You recruit 3 (three) others - 15 years or older - to volunteer for this race and have them sign up on the Volunteer page and put Your Name when it asks who recruited them. 3) You and your recruits show up on race day and volunteer for the entire race. 4) After the race, if all qualifications are met, Five Star NTP will mail you your $50 Visa Gift card.
