Fundraising Information

How will the Young Life 5k help?

It is our hope that EVERY kid in the West End would have the chance to experience a life-changing week of Young Life camp.  Each year, Young Life West End raises close to $10,000 in camp scholarships to give to high schoolers who need financial assistance to pay for camp.  100% of the race entry fees and additional donations will be used for providing financial assistance to students wishing to attend Young Life camp this summer.  Participating in the West End 5k will make it possible for many more students to experience the fun, adventure, and discovery that is unique to Young Life camp.

For current high school students who run or walk in the 5k and plan to sign up to attend camp in 2018: 

The BEST way for you to benefit from the West End 5k for campership is to participate in one of our area-wide Letter Writing Days - Tuesday, April 10th or Wednesday, April 11th.  (Time and location will be announced as soon as possible!)  Just bring 10-20 addresses of friends or family members who might want to support you participating in the 5k.  We will provide the letters, envelopes, and stamps - all you need to bring are addresses!  100% of the donations sent in from your friends/family will go to support your camp trip, unless you choose to donate your support to another camper.  All donations are considered tax deductible.  This is an easy and proven way to help you fundraise for Young Life camp.  If you have any questions just ask your leader or call the Young Life West End office at (804) 723-0463.    
 

For any runner/walker who is not attending Young Life camp but participates in the 5k:

The $30 registration fee will be used to help kids who want to attend camp but need financial assistance to do so.  If you wish to donate your registration fee to a specific person, please email YLwestend@gmail.com with the specifics.  If no student is specified the donation will go where it is most needed.  Additionally, during registration you will have the option to make a donation over and above your registration fee.  If you wish to make an additional donation, follow the instructions when prompted.
 

Friends, family and community members who can’t run or walk in the 2018 5k:

Just click “DONATE” above and your donation will go where it is most needed.  If you’d like to designate your donation for a specific camper, please email YLwestend@gmail.com with the specifics.
 

Additional donations can be made to support high schoolers from the West End having the chance to go to Young Life camp!  Donations can be made by anyone – not just race participants!  Just click “DONATE” now!
