Charleston, SC

The Reindeer Run, presented by Piggly Wiggly and Half-moon Outfitters,
is a family-oriented, pet-friendly 5k run/walk through the lower
peninsula of downtown Charlest...on, SC. The event has grown significantly
over the years; from only a few hundred participants to record
attendance of almost 2,500 runners in 2008. Throughout the history of
the event, the Charitable Society of Charleston (CSC) has donated over
$300,000 to the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). In 2008
alone CSC donated $51,000 to the Children’s Hospital. These funds help
MUSC develop and maintain a variety of programs in the Children’s
Hospital as well as The Darby Children’s Research Institute. This
includes research in the prevention and treatment of childhood
diseases.


Proceeds from the Reindeer Run are split between MUSC
Children’s Hospital and the Charitable Society of Charleston. 80% of
the funds go to the MUSC Children’s Hospital and 20% go to the
Charitable Society of Charleston’s endowment. In 2008 the Reindeer Run
contributed $12,000 to the CSC endowment. This endowment provides
grants and donations to local non-profit organizations which benefit
both children and elderly residents of the Lowcountry.
