The Spring Lake 5 is a not-for-profit event where all of our net proceeds go to support charitable organizations and community activities. This year we are offering Runners the option to make a direct donation to two local charities.
Konscious Youth Development & Service (KYDS) is a 501c3 non-profit conscious youth development organization that transforms Youth, Schools and communities through holistic practices. KYDS was founded in the Fall of 2014 by Mychal Mills and Rodney Salomon, two passionate individuals looking to support the minds, bodies, and souls of the greater Asbury Park community and beyond. Since it takes the transformation of entire communities to sustain the upliftment of our youth, KYDS also offers holistic wellness programming for school educators, administration, educators, parents, and the community.

The St. Vincent de Paul Society harnesses the power of community and partnerships to feed, clothe, house and heal individuals and families in our local community who have nowhere else to turn for help. Our mission is to serve those in need, and your donation will help accomplish this through SVdP Vincent’s Legacy and the SVdP St. Catharine Conference. All donations will benefit both conferences.
Vincent's Legacy provides gently used furniture and household goods to our neighbors in need throughout Monmouth and Ocean Counties. Our mission of ‘Turning our Neighbor’s House into a Home’ supports our local neighbors. We are a 100% volunteer-based organization and assist our neighbors by providing basic home furnishings, such as mattresses, bed frames, and other items. https://vincentslegacy.wixsite.com/furniture
SVdP St. Catharine Conference: Our mission is to serve local Neighbors in need – people without jobs or without money, who are hungry, or sitting in darkness because their electricity has been cut off, people who are losing hope. We go to them on a Home Visit, we listen to them, and we pray with them. We provide whatever help we can such as financial assistance with rent, utilities, and gift cards for groceries. We also help identify other local resources to try to help address their needs. https://scslsvdp.org/
