$0.00 Raised for CleftStrong Kickstart Confidence 25

Build Confidence. Change Lives.

The Kickstart Confidence 25 Challenge is part of the CleftStrong Confidence Classic Edition 5K + Kids 1K event, where every runner has the chance to build confidence even beyond the finish line.

This year, we are partnering with LEAP to support life changing cleft surgeries and care for children worldwide.

Every $25 raised helps children born with cleft conditions who have little to no access to specialized surgical care. Every person who raises $25 receives a CleftStrong Confidence Starter Pack. Fundraising milestone awards are given along the way + VIP perks and race day recognition are reserved for the team that unlocks the most confidence starter packs!

Create or join a team, share your fundraising page, and help support surgeries and care for children around the world. Every step and every dollar helps a child smile, speak, and live with confidence.  

*You do not  have to participate in the 5k or 1k to donate to this cause.
