The Academy for Creating Excellence (ACE) and Black Men Run (BMR) - Seattle will be collaborating through a 5k walk/jog/run called the Day of Excellence.
 
Day of Excellence is a scholarship fundraiser centered around the health and wellness of black men. Our goal is to raise $10,000 to support the ACE FAME Scholarship fund.  10 ACE students will receive $1,000 awards towards their post-secondary education. 
 
ACE is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization providing  high quality services in support of black males. Fostering safe spaces to facilitate their growth to best understand themselves as viables world citizens. 
 
BMR - Seattle - At Black Men Run we believe that running/jogging can change these alarming trends and we are here to encourage African American males to get out and be active. Research tells us that running on a regular basis not only benefits individuals from a physical standpoint but also increases mental sharpness. Studies show that running on a regular basis helps to boost your confidence, relieves stress and eliminates depression.
