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

Meet Our Event Chairs

Colin & Andy met the David's Refuge team nearly 6 years ago, rebuilding their website in under 24 hours through the ABC Creative Brand Bash. Their attention to detail, love for the mission and overall charisma ensured that the team at David's Refuge would keep them close and never let them go! As avid runners with a desire to support the missions they love, it made perfect sense to have them join forces with running events to support David's Refuge.  Through their partnership at The Lab Creative, they have a true understanding of what it takes to build and maintain a well-branded company, and prioritize FUN and WELLNESS as a part of all they do!  The team at David's Refuge is so grateful for all that Colin and Andy do to support caregivers in our community and beyond.
