Run for Hope is a 5K event to raise funds for Refuge of Hope IL, a 501(c)3 non profit, who takes in homeless youth that were previously in the foster care system.
We give these youth a hope and help them to come up with a plan for their future. We provide all basic needs as well as transportation to and from work/school.
The funds will go to help pay for all of the day-to-day expenses of the homes as well as any needs that the young adults may have. ALL participants will receive a T-shirt, Swag Bag, and Water Bottle. Medals will be given for top place (male and female) in their age group.
Age Groups for medals will be as follows:
14 and younger
15-19
20-24
25-29
30-34
35-39
40-44
