Miner Institute was so pleased to host the Strides for James charity event for the fourth year. 2017 marked the fifth year of the 5K/10K event which raises money for the James Wilson Memorial Scholarship at Clinton Community College. James Wilson was killed in a motorcycle accident in 2012. James was an avid runner with a generous spirit -- he was always willing to help others. The Wilson family certainly shares James' generosity and organize the annual event as a way to remember James and give back to the community that James loved so much. We are so pleased to play a small role in helping to do just that!

Charity events are a great opportunity to give back to the community. It sends a message of love and compassion for a great cause. The exhilarating vibe brought by it provides bliss to each and everyone. I was particularly touched when I realized that this was in memory of Mr. James Wilson, who lost his life in a motorcycle accident. During his brief life here on Earth, his kindhearted spirit provided aid to those who are in need. For me, he is an inspiration to everyone.
