Race for Resources!
ACF Race For Resources
Saturday, April 9, 2022, at 9:00 a.m.
Bucks County Community College
Join us for a family friendly morning featuring something for everyone! Runners can choose from a USATF Certified 5K or 10K course through Tyler State Park while walkers enjoy a 1 mile stroll through the picturesque Bucks County Community College Campus. The event is designed with families in mind. At the finish line enjoy a fabulous box lunch courtesy of Outback Steakhouse and friends. Post-race enjoy fun filled festivities such as video gaming, a bounce house and dancing.
The Expo
Our Expo provides families with the opportunity to investigate and interact with different special needs service providers – all in one place! For businesses this is a wonderful opportunity to showcase your offerings to a targeted audience.
5K Run, 10K Run (USATF Certified), 1 Mile Family Walk
All courses start and finish at Bucks County Community College with the 5K and 10K courses winding their way through Tyler State Park. Timing chips will be used (attached to the runner's bib, not the shoe) for the most accurate time possible for the 5K and 10K races. The walk is coordinated to end at the approximate time of the race so that families can enjoy the post-race festivities.
You can help support the Race for Resources by participating in the walk/race, starting a team, donating to a team, or donating to a specific racer/walker. It's as easy as a click of a button. Every donation is important!
Why We Race for Resources
We race so that our loved ones with special needs can enjoy the same opportunities and acceptance as their peers. Our fundraising efforts allow us to host a full calendar of activities such as movies, art, singing and dances as well as support the efforts of our Adult Services Division.
The Adult Services Division provides a daily program where clients work on life skills, such as laundry, shopping, and cooking while providing interactive socialization and activities.
How You Can Participate
The Race is on! Whether you choose to create a team, run, or walk, sponsor the race, volunteer, or be an expo presenter, your partnership with Autism Cares Foundation enables us to serve our community.
