Raise funds for your favorite nonprofit!
The Human Race combines the options of a 5K walk or 5K/10K run sponsored by the Whatcom Volunteer Center and local businesses to raise funds for nonprofits. Individuals and groups collect donations for thier favorite cause. The celebration culminates with a complimentary lunch, prizes, and entertainment! We hope to see you in 2009!!
How Does It Work?
- Stop by the Volunteer Center to receive a packet.
- Collect donations from friends for your favorite nonprofit.

Designated nonprofit organizations receive 75% of the donations collected and the Whatcom Volunteer Center receives 25% to use for connecting volunteers with nonprofits throughout the year. For more information CLICK HERE.
What Are The Benefits?
In 2008, with support from local businesses and individual donors, we raised $56,000 for 46 nonprofits throughout the community. This is a great family event, competitive race and an effective fundraiser all rolled into one!
