Race to Remember (the non-profit)“Race to Remember” is not just the name of a race but also the name of our  military nonprofit which has the intended purpose of ensuring our communities Never Forget the sacrifice(s) that our brave men and women of the military and their families make every day to continue to protect our Freedom. In addition to participating in race events throughout the nation, Race to Remember organize three races a year: Race to Remember – Veterans Day Race; Race to Remember – Memorial Day Race; and United We Stand for 9/11.

In addition to racing, we organize and participate in other events that honor and support our Veterans with Military care package drives, Honor Flight flag escorts, Honor the Fallen events, Veteran moving assistance, as well as providing opportunities for our local youth to better understand the true meaning behind the Veteran and Memorial Day Holidays. Our ultimate goal is to build partnerships with other organizations in our communities and throughout the nation to help us honor and support our past, present and future Military Veterans. Our main long term goal is the establishment of a scholarship program for the children and spouses of the Fallen Soldiers.
