Our Mission

Last year, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, Run for Rhonda donated $25,000 to a local student through the Take Stock in Children (TSiC) program. This contribution, matched by TSiC funds, provided this Keys student with a full four-year scholarship and two years of dorm costs. Our mission is to continue Rhonda's legacy by offering another Rhonda Flores Memorial Scholarship this year, and we need your support to make this possible.

We are seeking sponsors who share our commitment to making a positive impact in our community.  There are several amazing sponsorship opportunities available.  For more information visit http://runforrhonda.com
