Pace for Peace: Run for Refugees & Sudan
The Pace for Peace event returns to Boise, Idaho, in the spring of 2026. This athletic gathering focuses on supporting refugee resettlement efforts both locally and globally. Organized by a registered non-profit led by university students and young professionals, the event aims to bridge funding gaps for humanitarian services while connecting the local community through physical activity.
The run features a single distance:
- 5K running race
The proceeds from the event are directed toward two specific organizations. Locally, the race supports the Agency for New Americans (ANA), which provides resettlement services within Boise. Internationally, the event benefits the Atiye Charity Association, a non-profit organization that offers direct assistance to refugees located in Sudan.
The course is situated in Boise, with the venue located at 1130 W Royal Blvd. This initiative grew from a community effort involving volunteers and students who have been personally impacted by immigration and refugee resettlement. By participating, runners contribute to the continued operation of resettlement programs that face funding challenges or interruptions. The event serves as a platform to bring attention to global humanitarian issues within a local context. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
