17th Annual Mother's Day 5K Walk & Run - New Bedford
The Women’s Fund SouthCoast presents the 17th Annual Mother’s Day 5K Walk & Run at Cisco Brewers New Bedford on Sunday, May 9. The event brings together more than 1,000 runners, walkers, families, and community members for a community celebration that supports women, families, and gender equity across the SouthCoast.
The event is described as inclusive and welcomes competitive runners, casual walkers, stroller users, and first-time participants. A kids dash is part of the program. Options associated with the event include run, walk, forming a team, volunteering, sponsoring, and donating. Team creation and fundraising tools are available during registration.
Proceeds from the Mother’s Day 5K support the Women’s Fund SouthCoast mission to advance gender, racial, and economic justice through research, grantmaking, and advocacy. The organization has set a fundraising goal of $125,000 for the event year. Registration is scheduled to open in early October 2026.
Volunteers and sponsors are listed among contributors, and host sponsors include Cisco Brewers Kitchen & Bar and Servedwell Hospitality. The event materials note that a donation of $25 helps sustain community-building events like the Mother’s Day 5K and supports ongoing work for women, girls, and gender-expansive individuals.
