Strides For Peace, Race Against Gun Violence

The Race Against Gun Violence (RAGV) celebrates the life-changing work of community organizations and provides a dynamic platform for people who care about ending gun violence to connect and get involved.

This year, the 8th Annual Race Against Gun Violence returns to Grant Park on September 23 after going virtual in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

RAGV offers a one-of-a-kind opportunity to Choose Hope and join others who share the common vision of a Chicago free from the fear of gun violence. 100% of charitable contributions go directly to nonprofit organizations dedicated to ending gun violence.

There is a family friendly race for every age and fitness level for both Grant Park and the virtual race format. The 8k and 5k runs are USATF-Certified, along a beautiful lakefront course. There is also a 2 mile-walk and a Tots for Peace Sprint for children 2-10 years old.
