A Race That Brought the Community Together
The 2025 Health Hive Golden Grizzlies Festival of Races Powered by KARMA jack brought runners, walkers, sponsors, and the Oakland University community together for a day built around health, movement, and impact.
But a successful race does not start on race morning. It starts months earlier with the right message, the right channels, and a clear plan to bring people together.
That is where KARMA jack stepped in. Our team partnered with the organizers to help grow participation, energize sponsors, and build excitement leading up to the event.

Targeted Meta campaigns helped expand the reach of the Festival of Races beyond campus. By placing the event in front of runners, fitness enthusiasts, and community members across the region.
