On Saturday, April 20, 2024, the UAB National Alumni Society (NAS) will host its 18th annual Scholarship Run presented by Viva Health. This year, the race is heading to Crestline Village in Mountain Brook. Come together with members of the UAB community as we raise money for student scholarships.

The race is hosted on a certified course and will be chipped and timed.

Can’t make it in-person or can’t run? Join our virtual run while supporting student scholarships by signing up to participate in spirit and receive a t-shirt & finisher’s medal!

Our Scholarship Run helps further the mission of the NAS and allows us to raise money to support current and future students at UAB. Your support will allow us to continue to provide services that currently exist and to provide even more opportunities for students, faculty, staff, and alumni.

About the Scholarship Run

Each spring, the UAB National Alumni Society hosts its annual Scholarship Run. Started in 2007, the Scholarship Run has allowed the NAS to raise more than $1 million to help support student scholarships. The Scholarship Run has established itself as an exceptional annual run for alumni and friends.

The NAS is a 501(c)(3) committed to serving UAB alumni and students through engaging events and resources. We are humbled to be able to provide student scholarships each year through our fundraising events. This much needed assistance is awarded to a wide range of students including first-year, legacy, and graduate students. Increasing the amount of scholarship dollars provided to students is an instrumental goal of the NAS. This money allows the NAS to assist students from across campus.
