About this Event
988 Awareness Walk • Run • Stroll • Roll
Join us on Saturday, May 8, 2027, for a free 5K in Philadelphia celebrating Mental Health Awareness Month and the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. Fun for all ages!
This Spring, the 5k will kick off at Paine’s Park & Eakins Oval, 3001 MLK Drive and Ben Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia.
Sponsored by DBHIDS, participants are encouraged to bring their family, friends, and pets for a powerful, uplifting day of movement, connection, and support.
Whether you walk, run, stroll, or roll, you’ll be contributing to a powerful message:
Mental health matters. And support is just three numbers away.
988 provides free, confidential, judgment-free emotional support 24/7.
Every step challenges stigma.
Mental health matters. Help spread the word that help is just three numbers away.
