Thanks to everyone who participated in PILO's Second Annual Pro Humani-5k on November 6, 2021!

We were excited to hold our second virtual 5k after our resounding success in 2020! Participation in the 2020 PILO 5k surpassed our expectations and we know we expanded even further in 2021 with your help.

This socially-distant virtual fundraiser supports mission-driven students who are seeking justice and serving the public by interning for legal services organizations, nonprofit organizations, public defenders' offices, prosecutors’ offices, government agencies, international humanitarian groups, policy organizations, and more.

And the best part is that you can literally participate wherever you are! All you need is a pair of running shoes, a phone to record your time, and a place to run. If you registered by October 15th, you received a packet with race information, day of race instructions, and t-shirt prior to race day. Registrations after that date were not guaranteed a t-shirt by November 6th. If you were in Winston-Salem, we had a 5k route mapped for you on Wake Forest University campus, which was included in your race instruction packet. The PILO executive board ran on campus at various times throughout the day and you were welcome to join them!

Whether you're in Winston, North Carolina, or beyond, we hope you'll join us next year to support law students who embody Wake Forest's motto - Pro Humanitate - and who leverage their legal degrees for the good of their neighbors, communities, and all of humanity.
