FANtastic 5K Fun Run

Mandarin Oriental, Washington DC is delighted to support DC S.T.O.R.M. (Students Taught Organization and Respect through Mentoring), with our Eighth Annual FANtastic 5K Fun Run and Silent Auction on Saturday, September 29, 2018. With a race start at 9am at the hotel, the course takes runners and walkers through the amazing setting of the National Mall, concluding with a post-race breakfast and Silent Auction.

With the community’s generous support the last seven years, we have successfully raised over $242,000 for education and development efforts here in Southwest Washington, D.C.

We are delighted to once again provide much needed support to our local area youth. Last year’s efforts produced $27,000 in funds that went towards educational software for Jefferson Middle School Academy. This year’s beneficiary is DC S.T.O.R.M., a local non-profit organization that provides mentoring to inner-city middle school preteens.
