From the organizers
The 5K Family Fun Day, hosted by The Space In Between, this is a run to support single moms turning their living spaces into a home! Come run with us and support, because every step counts!!
The Space In Between supports single parents and single-income families who are transitioning out of crisis, rebuilding their lives, and working toward greater stability and self-sufficiency.
Through donated furniture, household essentials, practical resources, and hands-on Family Blessings, we transform empty spaces into dignified homes where families can heal, grow, and continue moving forward.
This is a community-wide event bringing families, runners, local businesses, and supporters together for a day of movement, connection, and giving back.
