High Point, NC — For the third year in a row, Bethany Medical, The Lenny Peters Foundation, and Peters Development proudly sponsor the annual Run the Runaway at Piedmont Triad International Airport (PTI) on March 28, 2026. The event benefits local organizations creating a lasting impact in the community, including Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC, Greensboro Urban Ministry, and Open Door Ministries of High Point.
Since 1987, Bethany Medical, founded by Dr. Lenny Peters, has been a pillar of health, care, and community support in the Triad. The practice has grown to 16 locations, open seven days a week, welcoming walk-ins for both primary and urgent care, ensuring that high-quality, compassionate medical care is accessible to all. Beyond healthcare, Bethany Medical embodies Dr. Peters’ generosity, actively supporting initiatives that fight hunger, empower youth, and strengthen the local community. Through the Lenny Peters Foundation, his impact extends globally, providing homes, education, and life skills to children in need across India, South Africa, and Colombia. Together, Bethany Medical and Dr. Peters’ philanthropic efforts reflect a lifetime dedicated to improving lives and building stronger, healthier communities.
Elise Peters-Carey, President of Bethany Medical, said, “My father’s vision has always been about more than medicine—it’s about touching lives. Bethany Medical allows us to give back every day, whether through compassionate care, community programs, or events like Run the Runaway. Supporting our neighbors and investing in the future of our community is at the heart of everything we do.”
Run the Runaway brings together participants from across the region for a unique experience promoting wellness, advancing food security, restoring dignity, and giving back. Bethany Medical and its partners see the event as an extension of their mission: to care for people, strengthen communities, and create positive change.
