The 17th Annual Cruickshank Race for Shelter is Saturday, October 19th during Babson College's Family and Friends Weekend. It is a 5K Run/2K Walk that brings together students, families, alumni, faculty, staff and the greater Wellesley and Boston community to raise funds for the Babson chapter of Habitat for Humanity and the Service and Justice Programs' volunteer initiatives. We are hoping to have as many community members represented in this event as possible, as it promotes wellness, teamwork, and a sense of community on Babson's campus. Additionally, the initiatives that are benefited by this race not only serve Babson students, but our local and global communities on a large scale - which is why we are also opening up this event to the greater community and network.

Registration Deadline: Thursday, October 17; 2 pm

The race begins at 10 am in the BRAC Parking Lot. Please arrive 45 minutes before the event to make sure you receive your bib number.

Join IFE Executive Director Lauri Union for this fun, interactive live case study featuring the CEO of a Florida-based real estate conglomerate. We are not sharing the name because that would give away too much about the case! In our live case study, you will have the chance to hear this CEO's story and a dilemma they have faced. Decide what decision you would make and then find out what really happened! Our guest will talk about how they balance family legacy and obligation, while staying true to their own personal aspirations.

Participants will apply concepts from design thinking to this family context and decide which path would best serve their family business and themselves.
