Passion for Life Inspiration

The goal of the Passion for Life 5K Run/Walk is to raise funds for U of M C.S. Mott Children's Hospital.  Every year, the Passion for Life Volunteer Team chooses a family in our community that inspires us to run the event and raise funds and awareness for the illness, disability, or disease that affects that family. 

This will be our third year in existence and along with the participants, sponsors, and supporters, the Passion for Life Organization has helped raise nearly $30,000 for Medical research and our Inspirational Families.  Our previous Inspirational Families include Joseph Penrod and the Penrod Family and Sydnie Guttovz and the Guttovz family. 

Our Inspirational Families receive $1,000 towards their son/daughter college fund/medical expenses/savings account/etc. and receive $500 every year that the race is running and able to provide such a financial support.

We will be accepting applications for an INSPIRATIONAL FAMILY for the 4th Annual Passion for Life Run in 2011 shortly after this year's run.  Downloadable application forms will be available on this site.  If you know of a child/family who would make a wonderful candidate for next year's inspirational family, please contact Ned Stojkovic @ NStojkovic@wlcsd.org.
