"What truly distinguishes their histories is not their extraordinary talent but their extraordinary opportunities."
- Malcolm Gladwell, Outliers

Success is not a random act. It requires access + opportunity.

Cost is the #1 obstacle separating talented athletes from extraordinary opportunities.

As a team, we can "Move the Runner" and overcome this challenge.

Your donations provide an opportunity for a fair playing field for all.


Mission

It is our mission to couple low-income and income-restricted families with financial and educational resources to increase access to extraordinary opportunities to grow and showcase their talent and inspire them to pursue higher education.

Needs

The student-athletes that we support need funding for equipment, lessons, SAT/ACT preparation and testing, and coaching fees.

Any amount will make a huge difference in the life of a student-athlete.

Equity Statement

Move the Runner believes that all student-athletes should have access to extraordinary opportunities to play competitively regardless of income. We know that sports can open doors to a world of possibilities for all students.
