We Run Oakland: For Our Children
We Run Oakland: For Our Children is an annual family and community charity event organized by A Sista's Touch. The event includes a 5K run and walk and is presented as part of a series of editions listed from 2018 through 2026.
The stated focus of the event is to stop human trafficking and exploitation. Organizers list partnerships with local organizations and vendors to help connect participants with community resources. The stated goal is to bridge gaps between community, resources, and self care while raising awareness about exploitation and related harms affecting children and youth.
The event is described as community centered, with family participation and involvement from program graduates and volunteers who speak about related youth programs. Past communications reference packet pickup activities and collaboration with local partners. The 2026 edition is shown for Saturday, August 22, 2026, as one date in the series. The event appears alongside other A Sista's Touch programs that focus on youth education and support, including puberty and self esteem programs for girls ages 8 to 12.
