Thank you to our incredible partners, volunteers, and the 400+ participants who made this year’s Race for the Light such a success! We are deeply grateful for your support in making this holiday tradition brighter than ever.

Your festive energy and generous hearts turned the event into a true Celebration of Lights. Thanks to all of you, we not only had a blast but also raised vital funds to support the Oshkosh Area United Way mission.

Highlights we’ll cherish:

• Your creative costumes – Santa hats and “ugly” sweaters, who knew they could be so fast?
• The contagious spirit that kept us smiling from start to finish.
• Your lasting impact, creating a holiday miracle in our community.

From everyone at Oshkosh Area United Way, thank you for being part of the magic!
