Carvalho will team up once again to host the 6th Annual Superintendent's 5K Challenge, Race for Education benefiting local public schools. FNEI will donate a percentage of race proceeds to participating schools based on the number or participants each school team registers. Participants are encouraged to choose and run for a school team, so FNEI can enhance school fund-raising totals. FNEI has distributed nearly $160,000 back to the participating schools. Race or walk for education, and help support Miami-Dade County Public Schools!
