Supporting Belle’s Yellow Legacy of Love
Get ready to indulge in sweetness and strut your stuff at our inaugural Doughnuts and Divas 5K!
This one-of-a-kind event is not just about the run - it's about embracing your inner diva while supporting a great cause. Lace up your sneakers, grab your tiara, and join us as we raise funds for Belle's Yellow Legacy of Love, a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to spreading love, hope, and inclusion to individuals and families affected by autism and other special needs.
But wait, there's more! Our Doughnuts and Divas 5K is designed to be a fabulous and fun-filled experience, with lively music to groove to, delectable doughnuts to fuel your diva power, and plenty of camaraderie to go around. Whether you're strutting your stuff in stilettos or rocking your athleisure chic, there's something for every diva at our event.
So grab your glam squad, dust off your crown, and join us for a day of sweetness, sparkle, and making a difference. This event is held in loving memory of Belle Baber, a true diva who didn't let autism or her medical issues hold her back. Join us as we honor her legacy and celebrate the spirit of resilience, courage, and love. Together, we can create a brighter future for all!
