  The Run4More 5K will take place at the beautiful Frank Liske Park in Concord, NC, Home Builder Shelter. All proceeds will benefit scholarship and operational expenses for The Education Over Debt Foundation, a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. The purpose of the event is to combine financial and physical wellness. Studies have shown that financial stressors have a direct correlation with poor physical and mental well-being. By combining financial and physical wellness we hope to expose students and families to an overall healthier lifestyle.

  The funds will provide scholarship monies to students residing in North Carolina continuing their education at any two-year or four-year College or University facing the financial burden of higher education costs and fees. The funds also support the Foundation's programs to support students' various life goals.

  College Drop Off Items:

  We will be collecting donation items for students attending college. Please feel free to bring items to support students in their journey including but not limited to: notebooks, pens, paper, twin sheet sets, mini desk lamps, throw blankets, snacks, first aid basics, gift cards, etc.
