RUNNERS CIRCLE
IMAGINE HOW IT FEELS TO FINISH THE RACE!
The Runners Circle was established to cover Dinosaur Dash entry fees for TUSD students who would otherwise be financially unable to participate in the event with the rest of their school. When you become a member of the Runners Circle, you will help 20 worthy TUSD students join in the Dinosaur Dash by providing each of them a "runnership" valued at $20 (your total commitment: $400).
IMAGINE WHAT WE CAN DO WITH YOUR HELP.
Last year, generous donations of runnerships helped nearly 500 children join the fun with their friends from school. Imagine what we can do this year with your help!
