Why we run
Bigger than a fundraiser
The Just Be Kind 5K Run/Walk is a community fundraising event created to bring people together through movement, kindness and giving. Proceeds support Hope Children's Home and its rebuilding and recovery efforts, helping provide the children with the care, comfort and resources they need.
But this event is bigger than a fundraiser. It's a reminder that kindness is something we can all choose — and when an entire community chooses kindness, it can create meaningful change.
