Arukah Freedom 5k Color Run
The Arukah Freedom 5K Color Run is scheduled for July 4, 2026, in Princeton, Illinois. The event is a fundraising run that supports the WORTH Program, a preventive mental health and substance abuse awareness initiative for teens in rural communities.
The WORTH Program uses videos and podcasts to teach resilience, healthy decision making, and the value of life. The program currently reaches more than 8,000 rural students and focuses on reducing stigma and encouraging early help-seeking.
Funds raised will support construction and outfitting of a dedicated podcast and video studio to expand access to mental health education and amplify teen voices. Sponsorship and donations will be used for studio furniture, professional microphones, lighting, backdrops, and production tools to create a safe, welcoming space for stories of hope.
Event logistics include a registration fee of $35.00. Registration opens April 28, 2026 at 09:00 and closes July 4, 2026 at 12:59. Registration completed by June 16 guarantees a preferred t-shirt size. The event location is 14 Park Ave. E., Princeton, IL 61356, US. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
