From our Awesome Sponsors - Why Ellie's Run?

We are so grateful for our sponsors this year.  Take a look at what they have to say about why Ellie's Run matters to them!

FROM KRISPY KREME:

Your local Krispy Kreme Doughnut shops in Nashville ,Tennessee, are proud and honored to sponsor Ellie's Run. Krispy Kreme nationally strives to support their local communities, so to be a part of a race that not only supports the Nashville community, but many international communities as well is a true fulfillment of our mission statement. Krispy Kreme employees strive to 'touch and enhance lives through the joy that is Krispy Kreme.'  Thank you for allowing us to fulfill our mission through participating in Ellie's Run

FROM DARRELL WALTRIP HONDA:

Throughout the year, we sponsor many events that benefit our community. This month we want to feature Ellie’s Run for Africa, a 5K Race and 1 Mile Kid’s Run that begins at Percy Warner Park, at the corner of Hwy 100 and Old Hickory Blvd.

As part of our commitment to the community, we find great value in sponsoring events such as Ellie’s Run. By helping them underwrite the cost of the event, they can put every penny toward serving children in Africa. The $25 registration price pays for one child’s education for an entire year!

If you don’t have plans for this Saturday, May 21st, think about attending this community event. It’s more than just a 5K run. There will be food, African drumming and dancing, activities and bouncy games all morning – an event that your whole family will love!! Don’t forget to be on the lookout for a few of our cars!
