A portion of proceeds from the Run or Dye will support a number of local charity partners. “The KOA Care Camp allows children with cancer to enjoy the healing and freedom that comes from attending specialized summer camps, “ explains Scott Cory,  Owner of the Ventura Ranch KOA.  Carla Edwards, Local Event Organizer, adds “The Run or Dye will also help support healthy activities for local children in Santa Paula, Fillmore and Piru through the Boys & Girls Club of the Santa Clara Valley and in Ventura through the Ventura YMCA. With over 4,000 runners already registered, the Run or Dye will help many children through all three charities.”

Jan Marholin of the Boys & Girls Club encourages anyone interested in volunteering to register at the Boys & Girls Club. “Our Club will receive a $50 donation for each volunteer we register. We have about 15 volunteers already registered, and are looking for at least 15 more people to share their Saturday morning to help us fundraise.”
