ABOUT RUNNING4HOME
Run/Walk 5k or 10k for
homes and families in our community
Running4Home is an annual run/walk in the Durham Region and we’re back together!
This race was created to raise awareness & funds for organizations in Durham who are helping people where it matters most, in their homes. (A virtual option is available if need be.)

Why We Do What We Do
We have annually designated proceeds to organizations like Habitat Durham, Daughter Project, Possibilities House, and Their Opportunity. We do this because we want to be running and walking for people’s homes – running and walking to give people a sense of home, physically, emotionally or relationally.
