📌 Important Information

The Dream Run is presented by Manna University and the Manna Dream Center. Both of these non-profit organizations have a passion for people in their community and around the world. That’s why we’re excited that a portion of the profits of this event will go towards student scholarships at Manna University and local community projects with the Manna Dream Center!

This is a great event for the whole family with our Dream Run 5K and our Kids Fun Run 1K! Join us at this event and Connect to a Bigger Dream as we raise awareness for these two local non-profit organizations.
