For the Irving run, Glow Run 5K partnered with the North Texas Chapter of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. As the run’s designated charity partner, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society pledges event volunteers and the Glow Run makes a minimum donation of $1 per runner, plus an additional $1 match per runner by the Glow Run Series. Runners are encouraged to add an additional $1 when registering. In past Glow Runs, the majority of registered runners agreed to the additional donation. The final donation total will be announced on Race Day.
