About the event
The WAYS for Life 5K Race is more than just a run. It’s a chance to come together as a community and make a real impact for young adults who have experienced foster care or housing instability.
Whether you’re a seasoned runner, casual jogger, walker, or cheering from the sidelines, this event is designed for everyone. Alongside the 5K, families can enjoy a kids’ fun run and a festive Easter egg hunt, creating a morning that brings all ages together in a meaningful and memorable way.
Participants will experience a welcoming, high-energy atmosphere while supporting life-changing programs that provide housing stability, education support, career pathways, mental wellness services, and mentorship.
Your registration directly supports WAYS for Life’s wraparound model of care, helping young adults build the skills, confidence, and resources they need to move forward independently.
Come run, walk, cheer, or play. Bring your friends, your family, or your coworkers, and be part of something meaningful. Together, we can turn miles into milestones and help create brighter futures, one step at a time.
