Miles For A Mission

This December, UniverCity board member Chaz Williams will run the Rocket City Half Marathon in Huntsville, Alabama. What began as a personal commitment to run 13.1 miles became a calling from the Holy Spirit to turn each step into a mission of hope.

When you give to Miles For A Mission, you’re not only supporting Chaz’s run — you’re investing in children, families, and communities through UniverCity Family CDC.
