Nearly $7,000 Raised At 2018 Community Charity Challenge 5K

The 2018 Heart Haven Hustle 5K brought together residents, non-profits, schools, business owners, and more!

The 2018 Heart Haven Hustle 5K Run/Walk + Community Charity Challenge brought together 227 runners/walkers, non-profit organizations, business owners, neighbors, schools, residents, and their families. The 7th Annual Event was organized by Heart Haven OutReach (H2O) and hosted at The Promenade Bolingbrook on Sunday, Oct. 14.

In the end, the event raised over $6,900 for the twelve organizations who raised money through the "Charity of Choice" fundraising program. The event couldn't have happened without the 60+ volunteers, event sponsors, and the resources from community partners like AMITA Health Adventist Medical Center Bolingbrook, PT Solutions Physical Therapy, the Bolingbrook Park District, and the Bolingbrook Area Chamber of Commerce.

More event photos will be posted here when they are available. The 5K Committee is already busy planning for the 2019 event. Event organizers encourage you to stay tuned for some special announcements and enhancements to the 2019 event!
