Welcome to the 3rd Annual Butterfly Run!

Whether you’re here because you know and love Her Well Center, or you simply came out to enjoy a beautiful morning while supporting a meaningful cause, we are truly grateful you’re here.

Check-in opens at 7:00 a.m., and the race will begin promptly at 7:30 a.m.

Who We Are

For those who may not be familiar with us, Her Well Center is a faith-based crisis center serving survivors of sexual trauma and intimate partner violence, as well as their families. We walk alongside ALL survivors as they reclaim their hope, regain their voice, and resist isolation.

Our mission is simple yet powerful:

No survivor walks alone.

We live this out by providing trauma-informed therapy, crisis advocacy, case management, and spiritual care so survivors can experience true hope, healing, and restoration. In just three years, Her Well has had the honor of walking alongside more than 100 survivors in their healing journeys. Seeing all of you gathered here today is a powerful reminder that this community is rising up together to say:

You are not alone.

Why the Butterfly Run?

We call this event the Butterfly Run because healing is a process, a transformation.

At Her Well, we guide survivors through what we call The Butterfly Journey:

Caterpillar Stage – Survivors begin rebuilding and growing, supported by case managers who check in twice each month.

Chrysalis Stage – Deep internal healing takes place through specialized trauma therapies, including EMDR, ART, Neurofeedback, and Equine EMDR.

Butterfly Stage – After 12 months of courageous work, survivors graduate by releasing their butterfly — symbolizing freedom, hope, and life after trauma.

Butterfly Release

Each butterfly represents hope, healing, and freedom. If you would like to participate in this special moment, butterflies are available this morning for $15. Please join us at 7:20 a.m. for the release. It is a beautiful way to honor a survivor, remember a loved one, or celebrate the power of transformation.

Join us Saturday, April 25, 2026 as we come together to celebrate Rylen and Organ Donation!

Rylen, who was always smiling, quickly earned the name Smilin' Rylen.

Rylen earned his angel wings on June 5, 2017, at only 13.5 months old, after a battle with Bacterial Meningitis. Little but Mighty, Rylen did not leave this earth untouched. Thanks to the medical advances in organ donation, Rylen was able to save 5 lives.

We remember Rylen with everything ORANGE, a color of happiness!

Our Mission at The Smilin' Rylen Foundation is to raise awareness about organ donation and to assist families in crisis.

The Cowan Family would like to THANK YOU from the bottom of their hearts for your generous contributions and continued support! Please join us in celebrating his life and the lives of those he saved!
