Miles For Mental Health in Exton is organized by Downingtown East students as a graduation project to raise awareness about mental health. Organizers note recent losses to mental illness in the Downingtown community, including students and alumni. Proceeds from the event support Mental Health America Lancaster.
The event includes the following distance options:

The 2.5 mile run takes place outdoors on pavement, grass, and through some wooded areas. The 1 mile walk will be held on the track behind the school. Participants are advised to dress appropriately for variable outdoor surfaces. The first 30 people who register will receive a free t-shirt. When registering, participants are asked to indicate whether they will take part in the run or the walk.
Entry is free for Downingtown East students and DASD staff; children under 11 are also free. Local businesses sponsor the event. The description on file states gratitude to those sponsors and to the community for support. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
