Coastal Carolina University and Horry Georgetown Technical College are excited to announce and promote once more, Light the Night 5K Run, Walk, Roll or Stroll.
This event was organized to highlight Interpersonal Violence Awareness in the month of October. Like many other colleges and universities nationwide, CCU and HGTC pledge to continue to offer support, resources and further conversations surrounding the issue of dating violence among those in our college community. Movement is medicine, there is strength in numbers and power in community! Let’s move together and show survivors they are not fighting their battle alone.
Race proceeds will benefit CHANT-I-CARE Assistance Fund, a compensation fund designed to assist student survivors of violence. Your donation will directly impact students, faculty and staff of the CCU/HGTC community to include off-campus housing, medical expenses off-sight counseling and more.
In year one race proceeds brought in just over $4K, we look to expand this fund as our campus communities continue to grow. Your support is appreciated and any donation amount is accepted!
Thank you for your participation and support of this event!
