Run for the Children overcomes odds to make area donation
Since 2006, The Run for the Children race has provided over $160,000 for Virginia’s House in Graham and later for Dr. Goodall’s House in Breckenridge. Despite not being held for the last two years due to extenuating circumstances, the run has been able to provide over $30,000 in funding through donations and support from the community.
Dr. Dora Cawley, who serves as a pediatrician, started the program in 2006 after looking for a way to help in area that impressed her beyond her area of study, in the field of supporting victims of child abuse and neglect.
