Community
Proceeds from the 5k Run/Walk will benefit Royals Charities. Fundraising is available for teams, individuals and schools. All monies raised stay in the Kansas City area. Royals Charities mission is supports over 100 charities in Kansas City and the six state areas by donating funds or in-kind support. Royals Charities, the charitable arm of the Kansas City Royals, addresses the needs of our community and enhance the quality of life for area citizens by supporting programs that invest in children, education, youth baseball/softball and military. The foundation accomplishes this mission through financial donations as well as in-kind support, including memorabilia, tickets and publicity.
Donations can be made online. You may send a link to possible donors and ask that they specify you as the runner/walker they are donating towards. This may be helpful to allow people to make contributions using their credit cards through a secure website. You may also set up a personalized walker page through the online registration website to collect donation from friends, family, co-workers, etc.
