6th Annual Running HOME for Jacob
Running HOME for Jacob
Running HOME stands for Hope for Our Missing and Exploited. It is so powerful when we see families walk, run, or roll to support searching families and those who have lived through exploitation and abuse. It sends a message that we don’t forget about the missing and that everyone has a right to be safe.
For the second year in a row, Running HOME for Jacob will be virtual.
Participants will have the opportunity to run or walk a 5K or 11K between 10/11 – 10/22/2021. October 11th represents the #11forJacob and Oct 22nd was the day Jacob was taken from us in 1989. Join us in a family friendly event to celebrate kids and support the mission of JWRC, a program of Zero Abuse Project. It is our goal to raise $50,000 this year. Thank you to all who choose to get involved!
