Events are currently being planned to raise awareness and funds for Lillian Smith Foundation educational campaigns to educate and empower women, children and men how to help prevent and bring an end to domestic, dating, child and pet abuse.
ROCKWALL RACE TO END ABUSE 5K/WALK
The Race To End Abuse 5K/Walk is a series of USATF-sanctioned 5K races and 1K family fitness walks which are devoted to raising awareness and funds for campaigns to end abuse across Texas and the nation. Other races or walks related to this cause only raise money to operate women's shelters or related non-profits.
The second annual Rockwall Race To End Abuse is scheduled Sept. 18, 2010, 8 am, at a location still to be announced.
Walmart has again committed to be a major sponsor, and will provide all the drinks, fruit, snacks and prizes needed.
More Race events will be scheduled in 2010 and 2011 across Dallas-Ft. Worth and in other Texas cities.
As more and more Lillian Smith chapters are opened, more events will be added across Texas and the U.S.
