Run For Compassion

Every day an estimated 24,000 children under the age of 5 die from preventable diseases.

Compassion International is a Christian organization that exists as a “child advocacy ministry that releases children from spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty and enables them to become responsible, fulfilled Christian adults.”

Every year a Run for Compassion event is conducted in College Station, Texas to help raise funds to support the ministry and work of Compassion International.

This year’s Run for Compassion will take place on Saturday April 10, 2010 at 8am.

100% of all registration fees will go to Compassion’s Child Survival Programs in both Ethiopia and Haiti. These fees will help provide food, medical care, and other necessities required for children to live, grow, and develop during their critical early childhood years!

Please consider participating in this weekend’s Run.

Walk or run as if a child’s life depended on you.
