This is my 9th year organizing the BC Race to Educate! Since 2016, kind friends and family have helped me raise over $15,000 which has helped the entire school raise over $1.4 million dollars to help fund our financial aid program.
I see what past support has done for the students at Saint Columbkille every day. When a 1st grader becomes a 3rd grader and then a 5th grader who finally gets to 8th grade and graduates, I know we have done our job. When that student is accepted into a top-rated high school and given a scholarship to attend, I know we have helped change the life of that student. Thank you for making that possible.
This year, our school's goal is to raise $200,000 and register 1,000 participants for race day! To register to run/walk, please visit www.bcracetoeducate.com and please donate to my PledgeReg page to help me reach my fundraising goal.

Saint Cols now serves more than 400 students with more than 42 percent receiving financial aid. The BC Race to Educate is our annual fundraiser to support Saint Columbkille Partnership School to give all students access to a high-quality Catholic education.
