We Run Richmond 5k
Where did it all start?
In 2017, Moving Forward originated as a 5K fundraising event aimed at equipping elementary-aged youth from Richmond, CA, with backpacks and school supplies.
Since then, the project has blossomed into much more. While maintaining a focus on promoting health, academics, and community service. Moving Forward has expanded to encompass a scholarship program, life skills workshops, community clean-ups, and engaging outdoor activities for the Richmond community.
Stride for Change: Empowering Richmond's Future Together
Each year, as we lace up our running shoes, we run not just for personal achievements but for the collective pursuit of health, education, equality, and a brighter future for Richmond.
Together, we continue to redefine possibilities and empower the youth of our community, making every stride count in our journey towards a better Richmond.
