This year's shirts cannot be guaranteed after this date, however we will provide shirts from our previous year to make sure every Hero receives one!

A huge THANK YOU to our partners with the Tuscola County Community Foundation and the amazing kids from the Future of Youth Involvement! Together they collected, sorted, and returned bags of cans-then presented our Center with a $1,000 check! We want you to know that those cans were magic. You recycled them, and now that money helps children in our community. A child gets a safe place to talk. A child gets a toy to hold and keep. A child learns that they are not alone and heard.
You all proved that little things-like cans-make a BIG difference!

Lace up your sneakers and join hands with our community at the Superhero 5K Run/Walk, dedicated to championing the children served by The Child Advocacy Center of Tuscola County! Each step you take helps provide a lifeline to children who have experienced abuse. Our Center offers comprehensive, compassionate support, from specialized interviews that minimize trauma to therapy that fosters resilience. This event is not just about a finish line; it is about standing in solidarity with children, showing them they are seen, heard, and believed. Participate, sponsor, or volunteer – every effort helps us ensure every child has the chance to heal and thrive. Let’s run and/or walk for their future! 🦸‍♂️🦸‍♀️👟🏁
