Sometimes all it takes to start a fire is a little spark. That's the thought behind the Governor's Cup road races, which are held annually on the second Saturday in June. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana presents the annual event in Helena to provide people with a fun and festive opportunity to celebrate the benefits of exercise and healthy lifestyle choices with their friends and neighbors. The Governor's Cup serves as the main fundraising event for The Caring Foundation of Montana, with all race registration fees going to the foundation. For nearly 50 years, the Governor's Cup has sparked fires inside the bellies of numerous participants in the marathon, marathon relay, half marathon, 10K, 5K and Kid's Marathon and Fun Run.
The Caring Foundation of Montana (CFMT) works to ensure all Montanans have access to preventative health care services regardless of insurance coverage or ability to pay. Through partnerships and sponsorships, the CFMT is able to provide services at low or no cost to individuals of all ages, primarily focusing on rural and frontier communities with little to no access to health care services.
