You will receive awards on your results page as you pass through the different milestones.

CHARITABLE DONATION

We're excited to share that one of our charitable causes for 2025 will be college scholarships for low-income families! This initiative aims to empower students by providing them with the educational opportunities they deserve. As scholarships are becoming increasingly more difficult to receive and funding has been cut across the USA in recent years, Run Life, LLC has made the commitment to donating funds to help these students and families. Education is backbone of an equitable and prosperous nation!

Students will have to meet a list of criteria including financial need, academic performance, enrollment status, demographic criteria, personal essay, references, and extracurricular involvement. The funds will be given directly to their University or College to ensure proper usage and distribution. Thank you for your support!

​

See you all in 2025!
