CAPE CORAL, FLORIDA (May 18, 2018) – This Independence Day, a Southwest Florida merchant services company along with the Cape Coral Chamber of Commerce will lead the charge to raise funds for two non-profit organizations focused on assisting veterans. Priority Business Solutions is this year’s title sponsor of the Freedom 5K, an annual fundraiser benefitting Invest in America’s Veterans Foundation (IAVF) and the Special Operations Communicators Association (SOCA).
Each year, runners begin at the foot of the Cape Coral bridge on Cape Coral Parkway, cross over the Caloosahatchee until they reach the intersection at McGregor Blvd. in Fort Myers then make a u-turn and run back to the finish line at the foot of the Cape Coral bridge.
“This is a fun event that we love to be involved in and sponsor! The majority of our team lives in the Cape and the funds that are raised here by this event directly impact organizations right here in Cape Coral as well, being IAVF and SOCA. That provides us all, the organizers, sponsors, runners, volunteers, everyone involved some instant gratification to not only come out and do something active with friends and family but also positively impact our community on a contribution level and make a difference to these two local programs as well as everyone they serve. It’s great to be a part of this community”
Prices to register for the 5K are as follows: $20 ($15 for youth) by June 8th. $25 ($20 for youth) by June 22nd. $30 ($25 for youth) by July 3rd and $40 (for adults and youth) when purchased on the day of the race. A “Fun Run” price of $10 is available for youth under 12 years and a special price of $20 is available for present and past members of the military.
