This race was created to honor the life of Charlie Kirk and to give our community a way to respond to his tragic passing with something positive and unifying. While this event remembers Charlie, it also serves as a platform for raising awareness against violence and discrimination in our nation.
By participating, you’re not only running or walking in Charlie’s memory—you’re joining others in standing for hope, unity, and change. Proceeds from the race will be donated to the charities that Charlie supported, continuing the impact of the causes he cared about most.
This run was put together to celebrate not only the life of Charlie Kirk but life in general. Many were shocked by his death as well as many of the other tragedies going on in the world. This event was created to just take a moment and celebrate life. Whether you are an avid runner or this will be your first time trying to tackle a 5k, we invite you to join us Sunday November 9th so that we can celebrate together. All proceeds from this event will be given to Turning Point USA to distribute to non-profit organizations that were near and dear to Charlie Kirk's heart.
