The 2026 NAPPSA 5K FundRace
Every Dollar Has a Story
This wall honors every member who answered the call for the NAPPSA 5K FundRace, a peer fundraising campaign built to grow the NAPPSA Endowment Fund. Behind every dollar below is someone who believed, someone who sacrificed, and someone who decided that future generations of NAPPSA members deserve something lasting.
When people see a number, they see statistics. When we see our Endowment, we see stories.

Why the 5K FundRace Exists
The NAPPSA 5K FundRace is a peer fundraising campaign built to grow external support for the NAPPSA Endowment Fund. No gift is too small, and no effort is insignificant. Every FundRace completed writes another chapter in NAPPSA’s collective story: from zero dollars to nearly $900,000, and now closing the gap toward the Endowment’s first $1 Million.
“If NAPPSA has ever opened a door for you, this is how you hold it open for the next person.”
Years from now, others will benefit from what we are building today. That is the power of legacy. Keep writing your chapter.
