APEX FUN RUN

Apex Fun Run franchises operate businesses that provide fundraising solutions for elementary and middle schools, sports teams, clubs, and other youth groups through proprietary two-week programs featuring health, fitness, and leadership training, culminating in fun run events or similar activities. Franchisees manage Apex teams to deliver these programs, generating revenue from sponsorship donations collected by schools and shared with the franchisee after the school retains a portion (typically 40-77% depending on the program). The target market includes schools and organizations needing hassle-free fundraising while developing student leaders.
