Foster5K - San Jose
The 10th Annual Foster5K + Kids Dash takes place on May 17, 2026 at Martial Cottle Park in San Jose. The event marks a decade of local fundraising for Child Advocates of Silicon Valley and its Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) program. Organizers note a critical funding crisis; race proceeds support advocacy services for foster youth from birth to 21 years who have experienced abuse, neglect, or abandonment.
The event format includes a chip-timed, USATF Certified 5K course and short dashes for children. All Dash participants receive a goodie bag at the finish line. Registration opens February 9, 2026 and closes April 16, 2026; the listed registration fee is $45.00.
