Race for the Cause 10K & 5K - El Paso, Texas - Running

The Race for the Cause 10K & 5K is a Running race in El Paso, Texas consisting of a 10K and 5K.

In El Paso, the Borderland Rainbow Center will receive 50% of the money raised from the race event. The Borderland Rainbow Center's mission is to create a community space in which lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning, intersex (LGBTQI) people and their allies can heal, grow, and empower themselves and others. This substance-free space is governed and run according to ethically sound standards and research-based best practices for (LGBTQI) people and their allies. The BRC connects LGBTQI people to resources for improved physical and mental health, economic stability, legal rights, education, spiritual and cultural enrichment.

In NYC, The Center fosters a welcoming environment where everyone is celebrated for who they are, and is fully committed to providing HIV and AIDS services to the community. Part of that commitment is the creation of the Cycle for the Cause event - a 275 mile bike ride from Boston to New York. This event raises money for HIV and AIDS research each year, and 50% of the money raised in the Northwestern Race Event will go to support this worthy cause.
