Tree of Life Lutheran Church (Garland, TX) is organizing a fun run 1 mile, 5K, and 10K on Saturday October 1st.
Proceeds from the races will be given to #GarlandStrong.
"The day after Christmas 2015 was filled with family time
and post-holiday errands for most north Texans, until an EF4 tornado ripped
through the region, including parts of Garland. The tornado struck near
Interstate 30 and the President George Bush Turnpike. Nine people lost their
lives that night in vehicles that were swept off a highway overpass. More than
1,100 structures were impacted in south Garland. Assessors declared 127
destroyed and categorized 219 more as unsafe.
Now, hundreds of Garland residents are navigating the road to
recovery. Garland is a strong community that has worked tirelessly to help our
neighbors since this disaster hit.
The #GarlandStrong campaign is raising funds to help with the
rebuilding process – to address needs that cannot be met by insurance or
non-profit assistance. Such long-term recovery efforts are expected to be
substantial."
