We are gearing up for another exciting, family fun filled event on Saturday, November 17th, 2012 at 7:30 am. Thanks to your support and the outstanding success of last year’s Miles for Makayla, our Foundation provided nearly $14,000 in music, dance, and singing scholarships for children in memory of 6 year old Makayla Joy Sitton. We hope to do even more this year. Help make our 2nd annual 5K run/walk the best it can be!
Thank you to all who turned out to run, walk, and help in the Inaugural Miles for Makayla 5K Run/Walk last year. Your tremendous support helped raise much needed scholarships for children in our area.

Ask anyone who knew her, and they’ll tell you, Makayla Joy was special in every way. She was a sweet, bright, kind, and caring child. Her heart was filled with faith and she showed wisdom beyond her years.

The Makayla Joy Sitton Foundation is pleased to announce that it will be hosting its 2nd annual “Miles for Makayla” 5K Run/Walk. Last year’s inaugural event helped raise nearly $17,000 and attracted more than 700 participants. We expect even more participants to turn out for this uplifting community event that will honor a very special child and help provide arts and education scholarships for children in our community. The Foundation would be thrilled to partner with your organization.
Committed to honoring the life and light of Makayla Joy Sitton, our Foundation’s mission is to inspire families through the arts and education, giving children in need the chance to enjoy the same creative pursuits that Makayla so lovingly embraced. We achieve this by funding scholarships and other programs in our community dedicated to enriching the minds and spirits of our children, and equipping families for a strong tomorrow.
