Sixth-Annual Circle City Donut Dash 5K to benefit Teachers Treasures
Members of the staff of Pacers Sports & Entertainment will participate in the sixth-annual Circle City Donut Cash 5K to benefit Teachers Treasures, a not-for-profit that obtains and distributes school supplies free to teachers of students in need.
Every day at public, private, charter and parochial schools located throughout Marion County, children of all ages attend class without the most-basic supplies they need to get a good education. Dedicated teachers are often willing to pay for these much-needed supplies out of their own pockets to make sure the kids in their classrooms have the necessary tools to learn. On average, teachers spend $800-$1200 a year on school supplies for their students.
