NYC Gaza Walk/Run 5K
The NYC Gaza Walk/Run 5K is part of the Gaza 5K series hosted by UNRWA USA. The event is presented as a family friendly walk or run that brings members of the American community together to show solidarity with refugees in the Gaza Strip.
It raises funds to provide mental health counseling to children who are suffering from PTSD and other ongoing trauma. The event attracts people of all ages, including runners, walkers, and community members who support Palestine refugees.
Participant benefits and event features have included timed race bibs for in person participants and a photo archive of past events. Fundraising perks and participant items are subject to change based on availability. The NYC edition is listed among the 2026 Gaza 5K lineup as a local edition of the national series that combines community gathering and fundraising for refugee support.
