The HiTOPS Princeton Half is not only an awesome race, it is HiTOPS’ single largest fundraising event each year. Race proceeds and fundraising efforts go a long way to support the work we do with young people throughout New Jersey. Since its inception, the event has generated nearly $1.1 million dollars (net funds) for the organization. Every dollar raised and every registered participant matters.
