More than a race...
Participants run the Bearathon for a variety of reasons; to stay fit, to honor a friend or family member, to cross an item off a bucket list or to run for a cause that’s important to them. Whatever your reason, your participation in the Bearathon has a direct, positive impact on the lives of Baylor Students.
Part of each participant’s registration is donated to the Baylor Student Foundation’s Scholarship Fund, which benefits deserving students pursuing their passion at Baylor University. When you run the Bearathon, you don’t just run for your goals, you also run for theirs as well.
Hear from some of this year’s Student Foundation scholars tell their stories and explain how the Student Foundation scholarship has helped them:
