The Color Run is one of Project Community’s largest annual fundraising efforts, helping sustain ongoing programming that supports children, teens and their families in Pelham and beyond. Project Community—currently celebrating its 40th Anniversary of providing our community with innovative healthcare programs—was co-founded in 1985 by Dr. Anne Frost. Project Community’s first program, Project C.H.I.L.D.D. (Community Help In Learning About Developmental Disabilities) has evolved into one of Westchester County’s most significant initiatives in assisting children, teens and young adults with special needs. In addition, four teen education programs provide community teens with information and resources in the areas of Sexual Assault, Binge Drinking, Anxiety and Self-Awareness.
The success and breadth of these programs relies on the support of this community—we thank you and appreciate you, always.
We hope to see you on Color Run Weekend!
