Jacob's Journey 5K Walk Run

Proceeds to benefit Jacob's Journey...A Forsyth County Organization raising funds to help Jacob Helvey, a precious 3 yr old boy who was seriously injured on Dec. 24 in a tragic accident. Jacob was crushed by an elevator & was unable to breathe for approx. 15 minutes. It took the Jaws of Life to remove the elevator off of his little body. Jacob was not expected to survive. Due to the quick response of the Forsyth County Sheriff and Fire Dept. and the grace of God, Jacob survived. He now faces an incredibly difficult journey to return to health.
