Help us Support PALS
Since 2012, the Purdue Boilermaker Half-Marathon & 5K has raised over $136,000 for the Purdue Athletes Life Success Program, better known as PALS. This free summer camp gives children in Tippecanoe County, aged 8-14, an experience with lifetime benefits.
These children come from families with incomes at or below federal poverty guidelines.
