The Broward Education Foundation will host its second annual School Culture and Student Support 5K Run on Saturday, October 25, 2025, with proceeds benefiting mentoring and prevention programs across Broward County Public Schools (BCPS).
The race kicks off at 7:30 a.m. at Charnow Park (300 Connecticut Street) along the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk and aims to raise both awareness and funding for initiatives such as 5000 Role Models, Mentoring Tomorrow’s Leaders, and the Athletic Leadership Academy. These programs provide guidance, mentorship, and leadership opportunities to help students succeed in school and beyond.
This year’s run will also honor the legacy of the late Jason Jenkins, who spent 14 years championing mentorship and equity as a leader with the Miami Dolphins. “All proceeds from this event will directly support the continued success of these vital mentoring and prevention programs,” said BCPS Superintendent Dr. Howard Hepburn. “Our goal is to ensure students receive the encouragement, direction and resources needed to achieve success in school and in life.”
Participants are encouraged to bring nonperishable food donations to benefit a local food bank and help families ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday.
Registration is now open and will remain available through race day. For details or to sign up, visit https://bit.ly/48g1UGp.
