5k Run Virtual Walk

Lace up and make a difference! 👟

Join us Saturday, September 12th at the University of Texas at Arlington for the HACEMOS NTX Scholarship 5K Run/Walk!

The race benefits the IMME Becas / HACEMOS NTX Scholarship Program. All proceeds from this event will go directly toward awarding scholarships to deserving students across the DFW area. Learn more about the IMME Becas / HACEMOS NTX Scholarship Program here.

The HACEMOS NTX 5K Scholarship Run/Walk involves your choice of:

    1. a 5K Run/Walk on a certified course or
    1. a virtual race – perfect for anyone who wants to run but cannot be with us in person on race day. Virtual Racers can complete their race from wherever they live!

🚶‍♀️🏃

Whether you’re running for a personal best or walking with friends and family, your participation makes a meaningful difference in the lives of local scholars. Let’s run, walk, and give back — ¡Juntos HACEMOS Mas!
