Ultra Black Scholarship

and Run 2 Montreal Fundraiser

The Run

Individually, our runners have tackled 10km races, half marathons, full marathons, ultramarathons, and more.
This October, we’re taking on a challenge as a team in the 650-kilometre Run To Montreal relay race, organized by The Runway (runtomtl.com).

Our goal is to push our limits while emphasizing the importance of physical health, mental wellness, and community. Running has been pivotal in our personal growth, and we hope to inspire others to embrace their own journeys towards holistic health.


Ultra Black Academic Scholarship
& Mentorship Program

This year’s Run to Montreal campaign is powering the Ultra Black Academic Scholarship & Mentorship Program, a new initiative dedicated to supporting Black youth (ages 16–25) in their pursuit of higher education and personal growth.

As we prepare for the race, we’re raising funds to help students unlock their full potential through financial support and mentorship as they chase their academic dreams. You can help us make a difference. Every donation, big or small, brings us closer to awarding more scholarships and making a lasting impact.
