Rebekah Burnett Tiger 5K Run/Walk

Rebekah Burnett was a student of Lawrence and Buchanan Community Schools. She participated in Lawrence’s Cross Country, Basketball, and Softball teams. Rebekah was very much loved and cared for by her friends, both in the Lawrence and Buchanan Communities, as well as her family, but trying to cope with Depression at a young age was too much for her to handle. She unfortunately lost the battle on August 2, 2011 at the age of 17.
The Burnett family, with the eldest brother taking the reins, felt now is the time to be able to do something in memory of Rebekah. Our goal is to help raise awareness of Suicide amongst teenagers and how to get them help when they experience signs and symptoms of Suicide and Depression.
Where the Funds are Going to?
Money raised for this event will go towards Lawrence’s Cross Country and Track Programs.
