You're invited to participate with the Arcadia community as we join the largest service project in Arcadia history. Together, we will support the people served by the Arcadia University Pro Bono Clinic (AUPBC) and run the races at the Philadelphia Marathon (8k, half, or full).
Our goal is not only to raise funds for the Pro Bono Clinic but also to bring together the University in a meaningful way. The AUPBC plays a pivotal role in the local community by addressing health disparities while also offering valuable professional experiences to Arcadia’s doctorate of physical therapy (DPT) students. By leveraging the Philadelphia Marathon, Arcadia intends to run for those who can’t and raise funds to expand the Clinic’s impact.
We invite you to join us and lace up your running shoes...even President Nair will run with our team in this year’s marathon! Whether you're a seasoned runner, just starting out, or simply cheering from the sidelines, here’s how you can take the next steps with us...If you are running with us, after signing up for a race on the Philadelphia Marathon website, please also click the below donation link and make an account on GiveCampus to register as an advocate to help fundraise for the AUPBC.
