Yesterday was sunny and beautiful, and we had a wonderful turnout for our 5th Annual 5K event.  The Vision Builders 5k is building up an excellent reputation as a REALLY FUN family event that supports a great cause.  ‘Kids Helping Kids’ -and- the value of family, are two of the main themes of the event…not to mention the shear fun of running a good race or having a fun walk on a beautiful tree-lined course!

Vision Builders’ Board President and Co-Founder Katie Kirkpatrick gave all the participants and volunteers a warm thank you for their participation and support.  This year we were able to raise almost $30,000 for the development of Kutumb Village.

After the race, participants enjoyed a free pancake breakfast and kid’s enjoyed a Carnival with games, and craft activities.  There was lots of smiling and laughing, and a true feeling of community, family, and generosity at the event; everyone coming together to help make the world a more joyful and safe place for kids – both here in Ann Arbor and across the globe to Varanasi, India!
