The School of Nursing at Colorado State University – Pueblo will host a community 5k in partnership with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) on Saturday, June 9 to spread awareness of suicide and suicide prevention within the Pueblo community. Funds also will be shared with the House Bill 1451, which provides funds for children who otherwise could not afford to participate in after school activities, and thus getting them involved in social peer interactions to promote support among the youth. The “Run for Life 5K” seeks to target and combat the high suicide rate among teens and youth within the Pueblo community by raising awareness through programs (funded by dollars raised) to help diminish the occurrences.
Early registration is now open with a fee of $18 through May 31. From June 1-7, registration will be $25. On race day, June 9, the registration fee will rise to $30. A shirt in your requested size is guaranteed with registrations completed by June 7. After June 7, size requests are on a first come, first served basis.
