Team CARA 'GO RUN
"Improving Our Communities One Stride at a Time"
At CARA we believe that running is more than running; it's friendships and camaraderie, a ticket to better physical and mental health, and builds communities. The funds raised from our charity team "Team CARA 'Go Run" directly contribute to our goal of ensuring that everyone in the Chicagoland area has equal opportunities to experience the emotional and physical advantages of running.
CARA and Team CARA 'Go Run is proud to be an official charity partner of the Bank of America Chicago Marathon, Bank of America Chicago 13.1, and the TCS New York City Marathon in 2025! It is through these partnerships, we are able to provide you the opportunity to make your miles meaningful and support CARA's community-based programming; 'Go Run™ and Run Crews.
2024 Fundraising!
