Village In The Valley is proud to host its Inaugural Sole to Soul Scholarship Benefit 5K Run/Walk, a community event dedicated to supporting local students while celebrating unity, culture, and wellness!
All proceeds from this event will go toward the Village In The Valley Scholarship Fund, helping provide opportunities for deserving students to pursue higher education, ViVa’s initiatives, and programs that preserve and celebrate Black history in our community.
By participating, you’re not just running or walking, you’re investing in the future of our community! Whether you run, walk, or cheer from the sidelines, your presence makes an impact! Come be part of a movement that celebrates unity, supports education, and strengthens our community!
ViVa is a nonprofit organization that creates the Black experience in the RGV through Culture, Community, and Commerce! Our Vision: Building bridges of community and commerce to unite the diverse cultures across the Rio Grande Valley.
