Event Information

Now in it's sixth year, the Christine Wilson Memorial 5K was established to remember Christine Wilson for the warm and caring child that she was and to do something positive in her name. Christine died, along with 4 other students in the tragic fire at OSU on April 13, 2003. All proceeds and additional contributions from this event will go toward two annual Scholarships to Bishop Watterson High School set up in Christine's name, a school she so admired and loved. Christine's Foundation will also continue to provide support for other community endeavors involving children.

In 2007 the Christine Wilson foundation donated $25,000 to various Children's focused charities in Central Ohio including the Child & Family Advocacy Center at Nationwide Children's Hospital and the Juvenile Arthritis Foundation.  In addition, $5,000 in Bishop Watterson scholarships were also awarded.  Christine's Foundation is currently in the early stages of a new relationship with Franklin County Children's services.  More details will soon be announced.

Visit the Christine Wilson Foundation website for more information.
