Partnership for Strong Families (PSF) hosts their annual Superhero 5K Fun Run today at Westside Park. PSF is an agency for child welfare services, responsible for child protection services spanning from prevention to adoption. This Superhero 5K is a celebration of the community's support for this mission.
This event is not just about running. It is about running for a purpose and making a difference in the lives of countless children in need all across North Central Florida. This event is a family-friendly one that welcomes participants of all ages! The festive atmosphere of the event adds to its uniqueness; participants can show their superhero spirit by dressing their favorites costumes. Prizes are awarded for things like the most authentic superhero costume and largest registered team, sparking friendly competition among groups and local businesses.
The real heroes of the day, though, are the children who benefit from the funds raised. All proceeds from the event go toward adoption efforts for children waiting for their forever family. It is a reminder that we can all be heroes not just in fiction, but in the real world.
Don't miss the chance to be a superhero for the day and make a lasting impact in the lives of children!
