The charity we support - Birth Right
The inaugural Crosspointe road race will help new moms in need. It's a 5k run/walk event for the entire family. Proceeds go to Birth Right charity headquartered in Taunton (http://birthright.org/taunton). They help counsel moms before and after birth. They also supply formula, diapers, clothing, wipes, baby items (car seats, strollers) and furniture to financially challenged moms. Won't you help us make a difference in their lives this Mother's Day weekend?

• As a volunteer, take pride in your role! You are a part of one of Mansfield's greatest events! Attire should include clean jeans (no holes), and comfortable shoes.
