Heaven Can Wait 5K
Heaven Can Wait is an annual community 5K held on Sunday, October 4, 2026, at the Redmond High School football stadium. The event benefits Sara's Project, a St. Charles Foundation initiative that funds community education, early detection resources and patient support services for people facing breast cancer in Central and Eastern Oregon.
The event has been held since 2000 and supports breast cancer education and local patient services. Over the years it has raised more than $2 million for those programs. For 2026 the event includes a fundraising effort called the 25K Challenge, aimed at raising additional donations for patient support items such as wigs and post-surgical bras. Registration and T-shirt fees cover event costs, and donations are tax-deductible.
Activities around the race include options for vendors and volunteer roles to support the event. Event organizers provide photo albums from past years so participants and community members can view images from previous editions. The event description emphasizes community fundraising, education about early detection, and local support services for breast cancer patients and their families.
