United Way of St. Charles Bridge Run - Additional Information
In collaboration with the New Orleans Track Club, United Way of St. Charles hosts the Bridge Run event to celebrate our community, promote health and physical activity, and raise funds for our programs. These programs provide essential services such as food assistance for children and families, support for cancer patients, and job training opportunities.
For United Way of St. Charles, the New Orleans Track Club, and our sponsors, the safety of our participants and volunteers is paramount. While reasonable individuals may have differing opinions on this matter, we will consistently prioritize caution.
We acknowledge that despite the registration process provisions regarding cancellations and refunds, the unfortunate occurrence of this year's event cancellation is undoubtedly frustrating. We share this frustration.
To address this, we are implementing a 50% off coupon code through the online registration system for the 2026 Bridge Run for all registered participants in this year’s event. This measure aims to strike a balance between our desire to foster goodwill and the financial realities associated with event expenses, even in the event of cancellation.
Upon finalizing the details and launching the website for the 2026 United Way of St. Charles Bridge Run, an email will be sent to all 2025 registered participants, providing them with a unique one time code to redeem this discount.
In addition, the New Orleans Track Club has offered to provide all registered participants for this year's United Way Bridge Run, a 30% discount code to the 35th Greek Festival 5K on Saturday May 24, 2025. A follow up email will be sent with additional info to claim this discount.
Thank you for your support.

Executive Director, United Way of St. Charles
