Run 4 Their Lives 5K Race

Run 4 Their Lives is a Freedom 4/24 event that raises awareness and funds to prevent and end human trafficking both locally and globally.

Run 4 Their Lives is Freedom 4/24’s 5k race tradition- created to bring awareness to the issue of human trafficking. Since its inception, this race has developed to become a fundraiser and tool to implement prevention education. We ask participants to partner with us in advocacy efforts by becoming fundraisers and using the race as a platform to share about the issue of human trafficking and the work of Freedom 4/24. Funds raised through each Run 4 Their Lives race are used to support the continued prevention and restoration work in the fight for freedom both locally and globally.
