Strides for Hope is a run/walk fundraiser supporting Hope Gospel Mission. This family-friendly event features both 5K and 2-mile distances. Every dollar raised will benefit the Mission's free programs for homeless and addiction recovery, providing essential support to men, women, and women with children. After a long winter, join us to run or walk and help make a difference in the lives of those in need! Note: Event registration will be 50% off for participants age 18 and under.
