Miles for Malawi 5K 2026

Miles for Malawi 5K 2026 is an annual fundraiser organized by Pamoza to support families in rural Malawi. The event takes place on May 16, 2026 at Eastern University in St. Davids, Pennsylvania. It is offered as both an in person 5K and a virtual option, with an additional on site in person registration tier.

The 5K highlights the long distances people in Pamoza’s service area must walk for basic needs. The communities served often lack running water, electricity, and transportation; nearly all travel by foot. Funds raised support programs that aim to improve food security, education, health care, and economic opportunity and that include Christian outreach as part of Pamoza’s work.

Support provided through the event helps families access scholarships, income generating opportunities, medical care and medicine at a community clinic, and agricultural training to improve harvests and nutrition. Pamoza describes its approach as holistic, addressing material needs and spiritual formation together.

Registration pricing is tiered by age: free for ages five and under, $20 for ages six to twelve, $25 for ages thirteen to eighteen, and $35 for adults. On site registration is available at an additional $10. The event lists sponsorship and volunteer opportunities and notes that it is organized as a rain or shine event.
