Running for a cause
By Brittney Sherman
Buy a floral shirt and dust off your sneakers as you prepare to walk, jog, or run during the annual Wildflower 2K/5K/10K event on Sunday March 30. This year marks the 42nd anniversary of the run and the first time offering a Kids' 2K Run (ages 5-11) and "all inclusive, non-competitive" 2K Fun Run/Walk (ages 2-102). Organized by the Morgan Hill Branch of the American Association of University Women (AAUW), the run continues to be one of the few non-profit, 100% volunteer-run events in the state of California. All proceeds from the Wildflower Run fund scholarships and leadership programs for women & girls, as well as community grants.
The Morgan Hill Branch of AAUW was chartered in 1981, has over 170 members and–especially for its size–is one of the most active and successful branches in the country. Learn more about AAUW and the Wildflower Run HERE.
