    Please support our awesome runners who are also raising money for a worthy cause - Sports Backers Youth Programs. Sports Backers invests in the future of active living in our region through our youth programs such as Kids On The Move and Active Living Leadership ALL Stars. From the youngest kids getting an opportunity to be a part of a running or fitness club, reaping the socio-emotional benefits while moving more, to those on their way to adulthood and applying to college, Sports Backers is passionate about supporting Richmond region youth. We do this by providing the resources they need to be successful, whether that be a pair of running shoes for a child in need, covering the cost of bus transportation for a run club to attend one of our signature events, or providing a scholarship to a promising student-athlete. Your donation makes it possible for us to support the most important part of our community—our kids. They are the future and we know that by investing in them and instilling

    healthy habits now, it benefits us all.

    Fundraisers are also eligible for a special class of rewards to thank them for their efforts on behalf of Youth Programs. Those who hit certain thresholds will receive the following:

    • $310: Tech upgrade

    • $620: Prize Pack

    • $1000: Race Refund + Name Recognition

    On April 24th and 25th, two brave teams of 8 people will take on Ragnar Trail Richmond at Pocahontas State Park. The teams will complete 122.4 miles in a relay-style race. These 16 individuals will push themselves physically and mentally to complete this challenge. These awesome runners are also raising money for a worthy cause - Kids On The Move, a program of Sports Backers. Kids On The Move supports youth running and fitness clubs in the Richmond, Virginia region, giving school aged kids an opportunity to train for and participate in a local race over the course of a fall and spring season. Kids On The Move provides resources for their coaches to foster a safe and fun environment to build up their young runners' physical endurance in order to be ready for race day. This program also helps youth overcome barriers to participation by offering complimentary race entries, covering the cost of transportation to and from the events, providing team t-shirts free of cost, and even outfitting

    youth in need with new running shoes.

    Please consider making a donation to Kids On The Move.
