The Monumental Difference

First partnering in 2015, Apex Benefits supported Beyond Monumental in its mission of supporting youth health and well-being by through programs centered around the sport of running by serving as the Corporate Challenge sponsor, now known as the Monumental Corporate Cup.

The Apex Benefits Monumental Challenge was an employer-based wellness initiative to incentivize employees to get active by running, walking or volunteering at Beyond Monumental events in the spirit of promoting health and wellness throughout the community.

As the needs of the community grew, so did our partnership.

The Apex Benefits Monumental Kids Movement is a seven-to-nine-week school-based running club powered by a health a wellness curriculum that educates youth about the benefits of exercise, proper diet and healthy living —culminating with students running a celebratory 5K.

The MKM 5K from 4 Indianapolis school districts – Indianapolis Public Schools, Lawrence Township Schools, Perry Township Schools and MSD of Pike. The Apex Benefits MKM program has seen over 10,000 graduates to date.

In 2023, Apex Benefits announced the extension of its title sponsorship of the Apex Benefits Monumental Kids Movement (MKM) and the Apex Benefits Monumental Kids 5K for the next 3 years.

“We’re honored to sponsor the Monumental Kids movement. As the group health and benefits partner to some of the largest school systems across Indiana we get the privilege of supporting schools’ employees and their family members,” Apex President and CEO John F. Gause said.
