Description
Are you ready to get colorful for a great cause? The PACU Foundation’s Flying Colors Charity Fun Run is a dynamic, community-focused event that centers around a fun run/walk (5k and 1.5 mile options) in which participants are doused with safe, food-based color powder at various points throughout the course.
Each participant will receive an event t-shirt that will appear tie-dyed and rainbow-tastic by the end of the walk/run! There will also be games, face art, a bubble station, access to local food trucks to purchase delicious treats, and so much more! The PACU Foundation advances charitable giving to support access to financial literacy, education and training, and disaster and emergency assistance for residents overcoming financial hardship throughout the Triad and Charlotte communities.
