About

2023 RACE FOR LOVE

Each year, Sport Event & Facilities Management students select a nonprofit organization to receive the event's proceeds. In 2023, students opted to work with Leaps of Love, an organization in Highland, IL, that serves families affected by childhood tumors by offering them different types of support.

SPREAD THE LOVE
Your participation in our 2023 event not only will support Leaps of Love, but will also help the Sport Management program ensure funds to continue the organization of this event year after year.
