Annual UW Bothell Husky 5K

Saturday, May 9, 2026

UW Bothell campus

The UW Bothell Husky 5K is more than a race — it’s a chance to create opportunities for students working hard to make a difference in their lives and communities. Your steps on race day help students take bold steps toward a more equitable future. This critical scholarship assistance supports our future leaders, such as Theodora:

As a finance and management information systems student, I want to make technology more accessible in low-income communities. This scholarship gives me the time and resources to pursue that goal.

– Theodora Sofowora, ‘22
