🏃‍♀️ 5K for Peace – Join Us in Moving for Justice! 🏃‍♂️
Lace up your shoes and join the 5K for Peace on October 4, 2025, as we walk and run together through the beautiful squares of historic downtown Savannah, Georgia. This community event welcomes people of all ages and abilities to stand together for compassion, dignity, and hope.
This year’s 5K will shine a light on the urgent humanitarian crisis in Gaza while also uplifting neighbors here at home—including unhoused community members and refugees seeking safety and stability. Funds raised will go toward essential needs—food, water, medicine, and shelter—because every person deserves safety, dignity, and the chance to live without fear. Whether you’re running for a personal best or walking side by side with friends and family, every step you take helps protect children, support families, and bring relief to those facing hardship.
