Run Saipan president, Edward Dela Cruz Jr. said, “The American Red Cross [NMI Chapter] wanted to hold a collaborative event together and we accepted. We are beyond excited and ecstatic to say we are helping the American Red Cross NMI Chapter with their first fundraiser event for 2023. All proceeds will be going to the American Red Cross NMI chapter. We thank the American Red Cross for partnering with us as well as for all that they do for the people of the CNMI.”

“Run Saipan would also like to [give a] shout out to the Commonwealth Ports Authority’s executive director Christopher Tenorio and [his] team for being very supportive of the fundraiser by letting us use the airport area as the 5K route for our event! Thank you CPA!” said Dela Cruz.
