Newport-Mesa Spirit Run (NMSR) is presented by a nonprofit public benefit corporation (501(c)(3) application pending).  NMSR is managed by a board of parent volunteers representing several schools in the Newport-Mesa Unified School District and who are dedicated to keeping the event alive. 

NMSR’s mission is (1) to present a community event promoting childhood fitness; (2) to provide scholarship (i.e., free entries) to children in the district who are financially unable to pay; and (3) to provide an opportunity to receive a share of net proceeds to any school in the Newport-Mesa Unified School District demonstrating commitment to NMSR’s mission.   If you have a child in the Newport-Mesa Unified School District, your child’s school has an opportunity to participate in and benefit from the event.  Contact your school’s principal or info@nmspiritrun.org for more information.

If you would like to become involved in NMSR, please contact us.  We are seeking help in promoting registration, with volunteers on the day of the event, and through corporate, individual, or family sponsorships.  Your support will help to keep NMSR alive and support education throughout the Newport-Mesa Unified School District.  To learn more about NMSR or about how you can become involved, please email info@nmspiritrun.org.

Please join us in making the 29th Annual Newport-Mesa Spirit Run an enjoyable and successful event.

Sincerely,

Newport-Mesa Spirit Run, Inc. Board of Directors
