Cupcake for a Cause 5k - September 13, 2020

We at Cupcake for a Cause 5K have been closely monitoring the ongoing concern regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the current situation, we have made the unfortunate decision not to hold our Cupcake for a Cause 5K Walk/Run this September. This was not a decision that was taken lightly, however through these difficult times, we must consider our responsibility to protect our participants, volunteers, and our community. 

We hope that you will join us next year for our 2nd Annual Race, with details to come at a later date. We are ready to spend the next year making sure our 2021 event is as amazing as it can possibly be! If you have already registered for the 2020 event, a refund should have already been issued to you. 

Thank you all for your understanding. Wishing you all good health in these difficult times.

Who will Cupcake for a Cause 5K run/walk benefit? Cupcake for a Cause 5K/Run/walk 2020 will benefit Back to Basics. Back to Basics is a small, all volunteer organization that makes a huge impact in the lives of well over 15,000 local children in need each year.  Their mission is to enable children to attend school with confidence  and be ready to learn by providing NEW uniforms, sneakers, socks and underwear.  They accomplish this through two simple programs: The Uniform Program which provides new school uniforms each year to children in over 60 elementary and middle schools in Palm Beach County. The Angel Program which provides NEW sneakers, socks, underwear and a toy each year during the holidays. Please consider bringing an unwrapped toy on race day for the Angel Tree program and be entered in a raffle to win some cool prizes. When selecting a toy please remember that for many of these children, this could be the only gift that they receive during the holidays. 

Back to Basics depends on the generosity of churches, organizations, businesses and individuals in our community to sponsor children each year to provide these gifts.  For more information about Back to Basics, visit their website at www.BacktoBasicsInc.org or you can find them on Facebook @Back to Basics, Inc.
