Hope Without Boundaries 5K Run/Walk
Hope Without Boundaries is a fundraising 5K run and walk taking place at National Harbor, Maryland on June 5, 2027. The event is organized by the Black and Missing Foundation and is presented as the foundation's largest annual fundraising event.
Proceeds from the event will go toward funding for families of the missing, flyer distribution, financial support, victim recovery, and burial service assistance. Organizers describe the walk as a way to provide funds that enable the foundation to support more families and to send a message of hope to those who are missing and their loved ones.
The event page lists key facts from recent editions: 1,124 participants in 2026, 25 percent growth since 2022, 74 percent female participants, and 75 percent of participants aged 30 to 64. Registration for the 2027 event is noted to open on January 15, 2025. The organizers are seeking race sponsors and event exhibitors and identify a Race Director as the contact for sponsorship and vendor information.
