The “Run for Hope” Virtual 5K Walk/Run
Acacia of Hope's mission is to empower the people of east Africa spiritually, educationally, and economically. In a nutshell, we are a group of world changers desiring to help those who deserve and need it the most in Kenya, Africa. Kenya needs us now more than ever! From a dry season bringing little harvest to a locust infestation that has ruined so much food, the people of Kenya need our help. The COV-19 is the icing on top of the cake, forcing people to stay instead with little to no food.
Poverty never stops and these people need us! Let us come together virtually to make a global impact in the comfort of our homes. In practicing social distance, complete your 3.1 mile anywhere and at anytime between April 25 and May 1. You can run or walk outside, hit the treadmill, or walk in place in front of your TV. Either way, use this 5K as a way of a stress reliever for you while also making a huge difference.
Submit your time via email or text ([email protected] or 419-516-4858), and you will be in the running for our cash prizes, raffle prices (walkers too!), and medals!
Sign up before April 10th to get a free dri-fit shirt that we will personally deliver to your front porch if you live in the Wapak area (or snail mail if you live out of Wapak).
Join our Facebook Event page for even more infromation including a special badge to post when you have completed your 5K! (Link: https://www.facebook.
This 5K takes place no matter what, reminding us that millions of people all over the world must travel in a variety of weather conditions just to get water. The distance of this 5K represents the distance that many men, women, and children walk every day to collect water for their family.
In Africa, women walk an average of three to four miles per day just to collect water from a lake or other body of water. These people then travel miles carrying at least one 40-pound jug to their homes. We believe that every person should have access to clean water, food, and education.
This race is for women & men of all ages and abilities, whether you run, jog, skip, walk or roll. 100% of the proceeds will go to providing a variety of iniaitives such as clean water and other necessities that every human being deserves to have.
$100 cash prize for top male & female runner with
medals for top runners in each age group.
Raffle drawings for walkers too!
