Zach's Pack

Running for a Cause Cure Better Tomorrow

Join us in our annual 5k fun run event to raise money for Ewing Sarcoma Cancer research and support individuals and their families experiencing the difficulties of cancer.

Why the Thumbs Up?

The thumbs-up in our logo is a symbol of positivity, resilience, and connection. It was inspired by a simple gesture that became a meaningful part of family moments—often bringing smiles, encouragement, and a sense of togetherness.

Today, the thumbs-up represents the spirit of Zach’s Pack: showing up for one another, finding light during difficult moments, and moving forward with hope. We hope it brings a smile to your face and serves as a reminder that even small gestures can make a powerful impact.

Totally fine! While we love to see our community sporting Zach's Pack gear, you don't have to purchase anything to donate. You can simply use our yellow donate button on the top to contribute. We truly appreciate all the love and support!

We love animals but we love when you keep them home on race day even more! We have had dog friendly events in the past and it usually adds to the chaos of the day, so it's better if your furry loved ones sit this one out please!

Absolutely! We are always looking for volunteers to help us the day of the race, round up food, prize, decorations, and more! We need everything from table cloths to raffle items! If you are a business owner or know someone who wants to contribute, please send an email to [email protected].

We hope to expand in the very near futurel Zach had a passion for golf and we hope to roll out a golf tournament in 2027. If you have any experience coordinating, volunteering or hosting a charity golf tournament, we would love to hear from you at [email protected]
