Join us on April 22nd at 9 am for the 2023 Run for Justice 5k/10 and Kids' Dash to benefit the International Justice Mission!
Walkers and runners can participate in-person locally or upload virtual results from around the world.
Last year we had over 300 participants in the kids’ dash, virtual run, and in-person run, and together we raised $34,000 for the International Justice Mission! This year our goal is to raise $40,000.
This is the 14th year for the Run for Justice 5k/10k. What started as a small handful of runners wanting to make a difference, has grown to a community of hundreds who run, walk and volunteer! In the past 13 years, we have raised over $204,000 to benefit the International Justice Mission and we will keep raising money until all are free!
Human trafficking and slavery is a growing global crisis. More children, women, and men are held in slavery right now than over the course of the entire trans-Atlantic slave trade: Millions toil in bondage, their work and even their bodies the property of an owner.
Trafficking in humans generates profits in excess of 32 billion dollars a year for those who, by force and deception, sell human lives into slavery and sexual bondage. Nearly 2 million children are exploited in the commercial sex industry.
The International Justice Mission (IJM) is based out of Washington D.C. and works with and through the legal systems around the world to free enslaved children and girls in forced prostitution. In order for the IJM to continue liberating these children, we need your support!
