About The Race
The Los Angeles Say No To Drugs Race Holiday Classic originated in 1988 in Clearwater, Florida to call attention to the drug problem and raise funds to benefit drug awareness and education programs. The Los Angeles race is now in its tenth year! Thousands of runners participate annually, contributing toward educating children on the truth about drugs and what drugs do to the body and mind.
Race Beneficiaries Include:
- The Boys and Girls Club of East Valley
- Narconon
- Drug Free
World Who Are We?
We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to encourage everyone to Just Say No To Drugs.
What Do We Do?
We reach out to the community by supporting beneficiaries who actively help educate kids & teens on the harmful effects of drugs, thereby taking vitally proactive steps towards drug-abuse prevention.
How Do We Do It?
We host annual road races to raise awareness on the effects of drug abuse on our children, donating proceeds of our races to our non-profit beneficiaries and distributing the Truth About Drugs booklet to the thousands who attend our races.
Why Are We Here?
Because we understand that happiness cannot be achieved by limiting one's scope of responsibility to the boundaries of family and friends, but must include responsibility for the well-being of all in securing our future. As kids and teens are the future, we direct much of our attention to educating them on drugs so they know to Just Say No To Drugs.
