Run for Peace: Walk for Hope
Run for Peace: Walk for Hope is the first annual Race/Walk held on May 9, 2026, in Huntsville, Alabama at 2151 Airport Rd SW. The event aims to bring awareness to community violence and to emphasize health and healing in both physical and emotional forms.
The program includes the following distances:
- 5K race
- 1 Mile walk

The event centers on a "Breaking the Silence" message. Organizers highlight goals such as breaking the silence and stigma around domestic violence, empowering survivors to speak out and seek assistance, encouraging community support networks and resource allocation, and challenging cultural stereotypes that contribute to violence. The event also remembers people who have died from injuries related to domestic violence and gun violence.
Donations from the event are designated to help the Rising South Literacy School address various forms of violence.
