Thank you to everyone who made our 27th Annual Building Tomorrows 5K Run, Family Walk, and Fun Fest such a success! See event results at RunOrWalk.org, and stay tuned for next year's event information! This event is powered by the love of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and the parents, grandparents, siblings, friends, relatives, and providers who support them. Funds raised help fuel innovative programs and make connections to critical lifelong supports and services.
