The run is set for 9 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 29, at Hancock Whitney Stadium on the USA campus. Proceeds from the race will help provide necessary supplies for the clinic, update the facilities and support meaningful research projects and collaborations to provide the best care to patients.
Located at the Salvation Army of Coastal Alabama in Mobile, the Student-Run Free Clinic is staffed by medical students and others enrolled in health and social science disciplines. “By investing in our clinic, you will not only help make a difference in the lives of the patients we serve, but also play a role in the development and training of the next generation of healthcare providers,” said Claudia Stephens, a third-year medical student at the Whiddon College of Medicine.
The registration fee is $30 for adults and $15 for youth ages 17 and under. Prizes will be awarded to first and second-place winners in each of five categories: students, USA/Auburn University faculty, USA Health staff and community members. There is also an option to purchase a T-shirt or make an online donation. Register online via Google forms.
