The Mary Kay Ash Foundation, Mary Kay Inc.’s philanthropic organization, hosted its 21st MK5K event, inviting participants to run, walk and bike to raise money for breast cancer research and clinical trials as well as women-related cancers and nonprofits dedicated to ending domestic violence.

In the United States, one in four women will experience domestic violence during their lifetime. The Mary Kay Ash Foundation recently awarded grants totaling $100,000 to four North Texas domestic violence shelters.
