TEKsystems Sponsors Pat’s Run for the 11th Consecutive Year

March 10, 2026 | HANOVER, MD

TEKsystems and the Pat Tillman Foundation honor Pat Tillman’s life and legacy, empowering future generations of military-connected leaders.

(HANOVER, Md., March 10, 2026) – TEKsystems, a global provider of business and technology services, announced their presenting sponsorship of the Pat Tillman Foundation’s 22nd Annual Pat’s Run, taking place Saturday, April 11, 2026. This marks TEKsystems’ 11th consecutive year as the event’s presenting sponsor, underscoring the company’s long-standing commitment to the Pat Tillman Foundation and their flagship fundraising event.

The Pat Tillman Foundation identifies and supports remarkable service members, veterans and military spouses as the next generation of leaders. Through academic scholarships, lifelong leadership development, and a global community of peers and supporters, the foundation empowers Tillman Scholars to continue their impact. The annual run honors Pat Tillman’s legacy and fuels programs that develop leaders who exemplify his values of scholarship, humble leadership, service and impact.

“Honoring Pat Tillman’s legacy means supporting the Pat Tillman Foundation and championing the ongoing career aspirations of those who have served,” said Mark Collins, president of TEKsystems. “Sponsoring Pat’s Run each year is a privilege that reflects who we are as an organization—committed to service, community, and carrying forward the spirit of leadership and selflessness that Pat represented.”

TEKsystems’ continued support of Pat’s Run reflects their broader dedication to the military‑connected community. Since 2013, the company has matched more than 25,000 military‑connected individuals to career opportunities across a wide range of technology fields and roles.

“Pat’s Run reflects the passion and purpose that define the Pat Tillman Foundation and the dedicated community behind it,” said Meg Cortezi, senior vice president of sales at TEKsystems and member of the Pat Tillman Foundation’s board of directors. “We’re deeply grateful to our military community for showing their purpose in motion, and we’re proud to help support their ongoing commitment to making a lasting difference in our world through the exceptional Tillman Scholars community.”

Participants in Pat’s Run—runners, walkers and families of all fitness levels—will complete the iconic 4.2‑mile course through Tempe, Arizona, finishing on the 42‑yard line of Mountain America Stadium, home of the Arizona State Sun Devils. Younger athletes can take part in the 0.42‑mile Kids Run, while Tillman Honor Runs, hosted in partnership with the ASU Alumni Association, invite supporters nationwide to honor Pat’s legacy in their local communities. Virtual participation is also available for those who prefer to run remotely.

“Pat’s Run is more than a single day; it’s a living reflection of Pat’s values in action,” said Katherine Steele, CEO of the Pat Tillman Foundation and 2014 Tillman Scholar. “Year after year, TEKsystems shows what true partnership looks like—not just standing beside us but actively investing in human potential through the growth and leadership of our Scholar community. Their sustained commitment helps ensure that military-connected leaders have the support, education and development needed to continue serving long after their time in uniform.”
