Join us for the Annual 5K & 10K Run for HER. This family friendly event supports helping women survivors of human trafficking find freedom and leave this world's modern day slavery with hope, safe community, and recovery.
The course will be run on the beautiful trails of Norm Schoenthal Island, right along the Yellowstone River on the South side of Billings. We also have an option to run VIRTUALLY, where ever you are located.
Run For Her 5k/10K benefits the HER Campaign.
Right now, it is estimated that there are over 40 million victims of human trafficking worldwide. Whether it is forced labor or sexual exploitation, traffickers treat people like commodities and transport them throughout the world to be used for profit. In the US, tens of thousands of women are victims of human trafficking each year. After a life of trafficking, few survivors receive emergency shelter placement and long-term residential care, resulting in high rates of re-victimization. The gap in residential care for survivors is significant and the need is immediate.
HER Campaign supports recovery and prevents re-victimization of survivors, helping them move from recovery to economic independence. We are committed to helping HER heal, grow, and find purpose through residential programs for survivors of human trafficking throughout the continuum of care. Through the continuum of care from recovery to economic independence, HER Campaign meets survivors where they are at and walks the journey of healing alongside them. Through our therapeutic programming and stabilization programs, we help provide the necessary resources, support, and community for survivors to thrive.
What is a virtual RUN?
A virtual run/walk is the same as any other run, but you get to walk or run at any location, at any pace, inside on a treadmill or outside in another state or country!
All you need to do is register online, choose our "Virtual 5K" or "Virtual 10K" option and get moving! You will have the option to submit your race time by the end of the day to compete with the rest of our virtual running community.
Packet Pickup: Friday, September 19th from 12-6 pm at the office of Agri-Best Feeds located at 47 N 15th St, Billings, MT 59101. For our Virtual runners, packets will be mailed to you before the event along with a t-shirt for those who order it.
Lace-up your shoes, and let's Run for HER!
