Fundraising Events
Get ready to run, splash, and support an incredible cause! The Broom Tree invites you to our annual Dash & Splash 5K and 1-Mile Fun Run—our biggest fundraiser of the year, supporting the life-changing work we do for families of children with disabilities in Central Louisiana.
Proceeds go directly to The Broom Tree and help fund:
Our grant program, which helps families afford essential items insurance won’t cover (like adaptive car seats, strollers, therapy equipment, and travel to appointments)
Parents’ Night Out, a respite program that gives caregivers a much-needed break
Caregiver Café, our support group for parents raising children with disabilities
💧 After completing the 5K or 1-mile course, runners will slide into the finish line with a giant slip and slide or water jumper/slide combo—so bring your floaties, wear your hula skirt, or dress in something silly and splash-friendly!
🎉 After the race, stick around for:
Family games & water fun
Music & food trucks
Community and connection
This is more than a run—it’s a fun-filled, family-friendly day that brings hope and support to those who need it most. Come out, get messy, and help us make a difference—one splash at a time.
Register today and let’s run with purpose!
At The Broom Tree, we host a variety of fundraising events throughout the year to support our mission of uplifting families with children who have disabilities.
