Event Description
Strides for Shelter: A 5K to Combat Gentrification
Lace up your shoes and join us for Strides for Shelter, a 5k run/walk dedicated to providing affordable housing and combating the displacement caused by gentrification in our historic neighborhoods.
Gentrification is reshaping our historic neighborhoods, often displacing long-time residents and fracturing the unique character that makes our community so vibrant. At Running for Real Estate, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to stay in the neighborhoods they know and love.
Every step you take in the Strides for Shelter 5k directly supports our mission to:
Build and rehabilitate affordable homes: Creating safe and sustainable housing options for families in need.
Revitalize historic neighborhoods: Preserving the unique character and charm of our communities while ensuring affordability.
Stabilize communities: Empowering long-term residents to remain in their homes and build a secure future.
Prevent displacement: Offering a vital alternative to the pressures of gentrification.
By participating in Strides for Shelter, you're not just running a race – you're:
Becoming a part of the solution to gentrification.
Showing your support for affordable housing initiatives.
Helping families stay rooted in their communities.
Investing in the future of our historic neighborhoods.
Whether you're a seasoned runner, a casual walker, or simply passionate about our cause, we invite you to join us for a morning of community, fitness, and purpose. Be a part of the solution! Your participation in Strides for Shelter will make a tangible difference in the lives of our neighbors and the future of our community.
