Another Fun Year on Campus
2025 was another fun year for the Bulldog Jog – roughly $6000 raised for our beneficiaries, great support on campus, and a few course records as well.
Now entering our 7th year of partnership and 34th year overall for the Bulldog Jog. Expect your favorites to return – Butler Blue, Butler Cheer, Hink, and the Butler Pep Band will be out in full force to cheer you on during the beloved Dawg Walk.
Charitable Giving
Thanks to additional generous donations this year, we’re able to make an even greater impact. These funds will be equally distributed between our three key beneficiaries, helping support wellness, running, and animal care in our community. The proceeds will benefit Butler HRC student wellness and grant programs as well as Indy Runners giving back initiatives including our scholarship program and various community projects. The 1-mile Dawg Walk through campus will also benefit the Indianapolis Humane Society.
