Since 1955, Eggleston has been dedicated to providing meaningful training, employment opportunities, recreation activities and residential services to thousands of adults with disabilities. The OK5K and 1 Mile Run/Walk is Eggleston’s only fundraising event, and all proceeds directly support our mission.
Proceeds from the OK5K event also support our very special summer camp program at Civitan in Chesapeake. Eggleston’s Camp Civitan offers individuals with significant disabilities the chance to have a life changing camping experience, while giving their caregivers much needed respite.
Thank you for your support of Eggleston and the OK5K & 1 Mile Run/Walk!
