Seniors at Thomas More Prep-Marian are completing a capstone project that is the culmination of their years of religious education. Makinsey Schlautman and Kamryn Hudsonpillar are hosting a 5k run/walk for Operation Underground Railroad Organization.

Human trafficking has been an ongoing issue but, in 2020, it is estimated that 40.3 million people at any given time are being victimized by this — and an astonishing 25 percent of these victims are children. This is heartbreaking, and Schlautman and Hudsonpillar are looking to help join the fight against human trafficking. 

For their senior capstone project,  they are hosting a 5k run/walk for Operation Underground Railroad Organization. The event will be held at a Thomas More Prep-Marian 5k course on Saturday, Oct. 17, and will raise money for the battles that the Underground Railroad team face. In order to make this happen, they are asking for help. There are several sponsorship opportunities available:

  1. A white sponsorship is $25 or less and sponsors will have their name (personal or business) printed on the back of the T-shirt that participants will receive. 
  2. A blue sponsorship is $50 and the sponsor will receive their logo (small) on the back of the T-shirt. 
  3. A silver sponsorship is $100+ and the sponsor will receive their logo (large) on the back of the T-shirt. They will also receive one free entry to the race. 

The deadline to make these donations is Oct. 9. Donations will be tax deductible.
