Katy Back to School 5K

The Katy Back to School 5k is flat and fast timed race. All registrants will receive a race shirt and a chipped bib.  Race proceeds will benefit Ainsley’s Angels of America and Lunches of Love. 

In addition to ensuring everyone can experience endurance events, Ainsley’s Angels of America aims to build awareness about America’s special needs community through inclusion in all aspects of life. Serving as advocates to providing education and participating as active members in local communities, Ainsley’s Angels believe everyone deserves to be included.

Lunches of Love, a 503(c)(3) non-profit organization, is committed to helping end childhood hunger in Fort Bend County by providing free nutritious sack lunches during extended school holidays and weekends. Many children living in families facing food insecurity rely on school lunch as their only meal of the day. Lunches of Love is here to help fill the gap. For additional ways to get involved with Lunches of Love, visit: https://lunchesoflove.net/get-involved/
