The event is a fundraiser for Mobilize Love, a Menlo Church ministry partner. Mobilize Love operates mobile after school programs and human services for under-resourced youth in the Bay Area. Program activities described for the after school services include developing literacy and numeracy skills, providing social-emotional learning, offering nutritious meals, and building a consistent presence and trust in participating schools. The programs serve over 300 children per week during after school programming and include mentorship and life skills training.
Funding information provided states that each increment of $32,000 covers the cost of providing after school services to children in resource-challenged public schools for one year. The event lists entry fees for the two distances and notes that prices increase after February 28, 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
