About My Team 5K for David's Refuge 2023


Hey friends! Would you like to help us raise money to support caregivers AND dress up in wild outfits? Join us and our friends at Willow Running as we kick off the 2023 football season on Saturday, September 2 at Onondaga Lake Park at 10am for the first ever My Team 5K to benefit the amazing caregivers in our community! 

We have charity bibs available for those who want to run and raise money to support the mission of David's Refuge. Runners who sign up on a charity bib will:

  • ​Commit to raising at least $500! 
  • Get a free registration!
  • Bring respite and wellness to caregivers!


All participants are encouraged to wear their favorite teams' shirts for this event. Be as creative as you would like to be with your running apparel! We will not only be offering awards for the running competition, but also for the best, wildest and most wild "team" outfits. All participants will receive a high-quality custom football (collegiate size) and finisher medal. We have a post run tailgate party on site as well.

Already signed up? Don't worry, you can still raise $500 to support our mission or simply let us know you're running, and we can meet up before the race! 

The 5K will take place at the Willow Bay Saw Mill Creek shelter.

Why Participate?


David's Refuge is all about love, support and community.  When you sign up as a Charity Bib runner, you are joining a family that works together to support, protect and celebrate a vulnerable population. 

Each dollar you raise brings joy, education, wellness and respite to care giving parents.  As you cross the finish line, you will not only be achieving your goals - You will be encouraging caregivers to push for theirs as well.

How Your Support Makes a Difference


Whether you're an avid runner or simply want to start your own wellness journey, this is a great way to start. Many of us now understand the feelings of isolation and solitude that caregivers have felt for years. The past few years have brought additional stressors for caregivers, increasing caregiver burnout. Your support reminds them that they are not alone, what they do matters and that God and our community loves them. 

Your Run = Respite. Wellness. Community.
