COLLEGE PARK, Md. – The Maryland men’s and women’s soccer programs will partner with the VOYCENOW Foundation for the third annual Maryland/VOYCENOW Run for Equality set to take place Saturday, Feb. 18. The two organizations will also collaborate with the Dream BIG Foundation.
The Maryland soccer teams will participate in a 5K run at Ludwig Field on Feb. 18, as the programs attempt to raise $10K. A virtual event, donors are encouraged to run, bike or walk wherever and whatever distance they can, but are not required to do so.
Supporters have the option to donate freely or donate as a sponsor of any of Maryland’s men’s and women’s soccer players. Any donation of support is greatly appreciated and 100 percent of donations will directly support the growth of youth programming throughout Maryland.
