Helping Our Families In-Stride 5k
The Helping Our Families In-Stride 5k is a community 5K run/walk held on April 26, 2026, at Eastwood Metropark in Dayton, OH. The event is organised by Helping Our Families, a non-profit focused on improving the quality of life for families in the Greater Dayton area.
All proceeds support the organisation's work with single mothers and their children, including providing resources, support and efforts to remove barriers that hinder family success. The event description notes that proceeds will go toward these mission-driven activities.
The organisation reports recent program outcomes from 2024: 19 families received emergency fund assistance that helped them avoid eviction or pay for groceries; 40 Dayton Public School students were registered at the Grandview Learning Lab for afterschool tutoring; and 169 mothers and children received Christmas gifts who would otherwise have had none.
Participants who register by April 12 receive a t-shirt with entry and a $5 registration discount. Donations are also accepted and appreciated. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
