                                                               Help Noah's Legacy Run, Walk, or Skate On!
    You can help Noah's legacy live on as a sponsor, skater, runner, walker, or donor. However you choose to participate, we're glad you're a part of Noah's Gift 5K.

    Noah's Gift is dedicated to bringing joy into the lives of young people, as Noah brought joy to the lives of so many. Noah's Gift was created to inspire and reward deserving young people with the gift of an extraordinary experience that was of interest to 16-year-old Noah Costa at the time of his death.  His interests were as wide-ranging and fun as his personality: playing hockey, traveling, hiking, water sports, skydiving, and much more. Noah's Gift makes grants to deserving teenagers to pursue extraordinary experiences.  These grants are made possible through sponsors and participants of our annual fundraiser, Noah's Gift  5K Run-Walk-Skate held in Noah's memory.

    This year Noah's Gift Memorial 5K Run Walk Skate will be in person and virtual! The in person race will be in Hernando, MS - participants may choose to run, walk, or roller blade the 5K! For safety, skaters will start at 7:55am, with runners/walkers following at 8:00am.  After the race, stick around for food, fun, and games on the Maddox Foundation lawn! More information to be announced soon - follow us on Facebook for up-to-the-minute updates!
