15th Annual Family Gratitude 5K and Kids 1/2 Mile Run - Ripples of Hope
The event takes place on November 26, 2026 at the Endicott Estate on East Street in Dedham, Massachusetts. It is organized as both an in-person and a virtual event so participants can join locally or from elsewhere during Thanksgiving week.
Distances and formats include:
- 5K run and 5K walk
- Kids 1/2 mile run for age 9 and under
The kids race is free, with a suggested donation of $5. Walkers in the 5K are not chip timed. Strollers are permitted but should start toward the back of the field for safety. Dogs are not allowed due to race liability.
The event supports local organizations and initiatives. Listed beneficiaries include Dedham Youth Commission, Dedham Food Pantry, and Ripples of Hope local initiatives. The fundraiser information shows $816.29 raised and 94% of the fundraising goal reached. The race lists multiple community sponsors and partners.
Organizers note a virtual results option and provide race results for the 5K. The event also seeks day of race volunteers and provides a volunteer sign up mechanism. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
